Leftovers are my favorite part about Thanksgiving dinner foods. Turkey sandwiches<\/a><\/strong>, mashed potato cakes<\/a><\/strong>, cranberry sauce toaster pastries<\/strong><\/a>, I love them all. One of my favorite ways to use Thanksgiving leftovers is by making a Dairy-Free Turkey Shepherd’s Pie, or Cottage Pie. (I know, shepherd’s pies use lamb and cottage pies use beef. Farmer’s pie?) Whatever you call it, this turkey and vegetable pie is a simple way to refresh Thanksgiving leftovers on day two.<\/p>\n

Dairy-Free Turkey Shepherd’s Pie that’s Made for Leftovers<\/h2>\n

This recipe is based on a Shepherd’s Pie recipe by Catherine Newman from the now defunct Wondertime <\/em>magazine.\u00a0The recipe calls for cooked vegetables, such as corn, green beans and peas. I’ve been known to toss in a handful of raw, chopped carrot sticks and celery sticks left over from the relish tray as well.<\/p>\n

If you are short on gravy, this Betty Crocker gravy recipe<\/strong><\/a> is simple and doesn’t require drippings. You can use turkey stock or vegetable stock instead of chicken.<\/p>\n

Kids Can Cook this Recipe<\/h3>\n

Because this pie is made by assembling precooked foods, it’s a very easy recipe for children of all ages. Younger children can put the whole pie together, and teens can bake the entire recipe.<\/p>\n

If you have a spare dairy-free pie crust<\/strong><\/a> remaining, you can turn this dairy-free Turkey Shepherd’s Pie into a pot pie with a pie crust on the bottom and mashed potato topping. Sometimes the crust makes the pie more appealing to picky eaters.<\/p>\n

Vegetarian and Vegan Shepherd’s Pie Option<\/h3>\n

For a vegetarian pie, you can substitute Tofurky or chickpeas for the turkey, or you can simply increase the amount of vegetables. You can use the Betty Crocker gravy recipe above with a vegan no chicken broth, or simply make a vegan gravy<\/strong><\/a> for the filling.<\/p>\n
