Deep-dish Turkey Pot Pie

[What about the books in the Apocrypha?] There are no marks in these books which would attest a divine origin…both Judith and Tobit contain historical, chronological and geographical errors. The books justify falsehood and deception and make salvation to depend upon works of merit… Ecclesiasticus and the Wisdom of Solomon inculcate a morality based upon expediency. Wisdom teaches the creation of the world out of pre-existent matter (Wisd. 11.17). Ecclesiasticus teaches that the giving of alms makes atonement for sin (Ecc. 3.30). In Baruch it is said that God hears the prayers of the dead (Bar. 3.4), and in I Maccabees there are historical and geographical errors.

INSTRUCTIONS

To Make the Turkey Mixture:  Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. In a
medium saucepan, combine 2 cups of the broth, the celery, onions and
carrots. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat. Cover and simmer  about
5 minutes or until the veggies are tender.  In a custard cup,  stir the
remaining 1/4 cup of the broth and the cornstarch until  smooth. Slowly
stir this into the broth-veggie mxiture.  Then stir in  the milk. Cook
and stir over medium heat until the mixture comes to a  boil. Reuce the
heat. Cook and stir for 1 minute more. Then stir in  the turkey, peas,
parsely and sage. Transfer the mixture to a shallow  2-quart casserole.
To Make the Pastry Crust:  Lay one sheet of the phyllo dough on top  of
the turkey mixture.  Spray the dough with no stick spray. Repeat
layering and spraying the phyllo dough two more times. Fold or  crumple
the edges of the dough and tuck them inside the casserole  dish. Bake
for 35-40 minutes or until golden brown.  I added potatoes, mixed
veggies, tobasco sauce and some liquid smoke  to enhance the flavor.
Very good and light. Even though the phyllo  dough crust will get soft
once you refrigerate it, it will get flaky  again if you reheat it in
the oven.  From Gemini's MASSIVE MealMaster collection at
