Instructions
1
Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
2
In a large mixing bowl, combine the diced turkey, cream of chicken soup, frozen mixed vegetables, sliced mushrooms, mashed potatoes, and minced onions. Stir until evenly mixed.
3
In a separate small bowl, combine salt, pepper, and vermouth (if using). Add this seasoning mix to the turkey mixture and stir until well incorporated.
4
Divide the turkey mixture evenly between the two ready-made pie crusts, pouring the filling in until just full.
5
Cover each pie with the top pie crust, sealing the edges by crimping with your fingers or a fork. Cut a few slits in the top crust to allow steam to escape during baking.
6
Place the pot pies on a baking sheet to catch any drips and bake in the preheated oven for 30 to 40 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbling.
7
Once baked, remove from the oven and let cool for a few minutes before slicing and serving.
