  • 1 cup (250 mL) shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1 tbsp (15 mL) butter or margarine
  • 1 medium onion, chopped
  • 1 stalk celery, chopped
  • 1/4 cup (50 mL) slivered almonds
  • 1 1/2 cup (375 mL) diced cooked Ontario turkey

  • 3/4 cup (175 mL) 2% evaporated milk
  • 1/4 tsp (1 mL) dried sage

Instructions

  • 1Pre-bake pastry shell, if desired for 5 to 7 minutes at 400ºF (200ºC). Brush mustard on inside of pie shell; mix cheeses together and set aside.
  • 2Heat butter over medium heat; sauté onion, celery and almonds for 3 to 5 minutes. Layer one half of the cheese mixture to the pie shell. Add vegetables, turkey, cranberry sauce and the remaining cheese.

  • 4Bake at 400ºF (200ºC) for 15 minutes, then lower to 375ºF (180ºC) and continue cooking for 25 to 30 minutes or until set. Cover edges with foil, if necessary, to prevent excessive browning during the last 10 or 15 minutes. Let stand 10 minutes before serving.
