Leftover Turkey Casserole

Happy Thanksgiving everyone! Here are some recipes for using your Thanksgiving leftovers.

Turkey Leftover Casserole I

When packing up the leftovers from the Holidays, make a couple of "Turkey Casseroles". Spray the casserole pans with non-stick spray, put cooked turkey in the bottom and top with gravy; next add a layer of carrots; or other leftover veggies (brussel sprouts are not a good idea); a layer of dressing (stuffing), and top with a layer of mashed potatoes. Push down slightly and cover with plastic wrap.

I put the lid on the casserole and wrap it again to avoid having to look for it when you warm it up. Pop it in the freezer. To reheat - Thaw in the fridge all day and heat for about 1 hour at 325 degrees F. Just make sure it is HOT in the center before serving. It's like a Mini-Turkey Dinner! Enjoy.

Turkey Leftover Casserole II

Here's another recipes from a jar of Heinz turkey gravy.

Ingredients:

• 2 1/2 cups prepared mashed potatoes
• 2 cups cooked shredded turkey
• 1 (12 oz.) jar of turkey gravy (or about 1 1/2 cups of leftover gravy)
• 1 cup prepared stuffing
• salt and pepper to taste

Directions:

Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F. Place potatoes in a 2 qt. casserole dish that has been sprayed with non-stick spray.

Combine turkey and gravy in a large skillet and bring to a simmer, stirring occasionally. Remove from heat and stir in stuffing until thoroughly mixed. Add salt and pepper to taste.

Spread the turkey mixture evenly on top of potatoes. Cover and cook for 25 to 30 minutes.
