I found this recipe in he spring 2009 edition of cooking for 2. i made a couple of changes and really loved that the recipe makes 4 pot pies--2 for now and 2 for later. very easy and economical.

Steps


In a large saucepan , saute the onion , carrot , potato and celery in the butter until tender.
Sprinkle in the flour and seasonings until blended , cook for a couple of minutes to incorporate the flour.
Gradually add in the milk and broth.
Bring to a boil and cook for 2 minutes or until thickened.
Stir in the chicken / turkey and peas.
Divide mixture evenly between 4 ungreased 5 inch pie plates.
Divide the pastry dough into 4 equal portions and on a lightly floured surface roll each into a 6-inch circle.
Place each circle on top of the filling , trim , seal and flute edges.
Bake in a 375 degree oven for 18 to 20 minuts or until golden brown.
Let stand for 10 minutes before serving.
If desired , prior to baking , wrap the pies in foil and place in freezer for up to 3 months.
