Here is the recipe I have used for leftover turkey. I like it because
it's tasty and basically can-opener cookery. Prep is *very* easy. The
pre-made puff pastry is the biggest time saver. I use stainless steel
souffle' dishes rather than ramekins .... because that's what I have.

Categories: Poultry, Vegetables, Pastry, Herbs, Dairy
     Yield: 4 Servings

     2 tb Unsalted butter
     2 cl Garlic; smashed, minced
     1 sm Onion; peeled, diced
   2/3 c  Corn niblets; thawed
   1/2 c  Diced carrots; thawed
   1/2 c  Peas; thawed
   1/3 c  All-purpose flour
     1 c  Chicken broth
   3/4 c  Milk
     1 ts Fresh thyme leaves
          +=OR=+
   1/3 ts Dried thyme
          Salt & fresh ground pepper
     2 c  Chopped leftover turkey
     1    Puff pastry sheet; in four
          - 4 1/4" squares
     1 lg Egg; beaten

 Set oven @ 375+|F/190+|C.

 Lightly oil four 10 ounce ramekins or coat with nonstick
 spray.

 To make the filling, melt butter in a large skillet over
 medium high heat. Add garlic, onion, corn, carrots and
 peas and cook, stirring occasionally, until onions
 become translucent, about 2 minutes. Whisk in flour
 until lightly browned, about 1 minute. Gradually whisk
 in chicken broth, milk and thyme, and cook, whisking
 constantly, until slightly thickened, about 1-2 minutes.
 Stir in turkey; season with salt and pepper, to taste.

 Divide the filling evenly into the ramekins. Top with
 puff pastry and gently cut 4 vents in the top of the
 crust. Brush each crust with the beaten egg.

 Place into oven and bake until the crust is golden
 brown, about 20 minutes. Let cool 5 minutes before
 serving.
