Morton salt and pepper
Instructions

Layer turkey on top of pastry.
Add green beans and then corn, spreading them out to cover dish.
If using left over yummy turkey gravy add water to loosen and cover pie pan with gravy spread all over pie.
Left over potatoes spread easier if you heat them a little first. Spread potatoes evenly over pie mixture.
