Thanksgiving in a Casserole

November 24, 2012 by OneMommy

 

 

Tired of the same old turkey yet?

If you are looking for something to spice up those  turkey-day leftovers, you’ve come to the right spot!

Last year I shared with you a simple recipe for potato pancakes, using leftover mashed potatoes.  And for that leftover turkey, I shared a quick recipe for turkey barbecue.

This year I used some of our leftovers to make what I’m calling “Thanksgiving Casserole.”

It’s pretty easy.

  • Spray a 2 qt. baking dish with Pam cooking spray. (By the way, if you want to know how much is in one of those cans, check out this funny post.)
  • Then add leftover mashed potatoes.  (I had about 2 cups I used.)
  • Mix 1 cup of leftover stuffing, 1/2 cup or so of gravy, and shredded leftover turkey (I had about 1 1/2 cups) together.  Then layer this on top of your potatoes.
  • Cover and stick it in a 350 degree oven for 25 minutes.

I’m thinking if you have leftover veggies they would be pretty good in this, too.  For more of a Shepherd’s pie type of dish, put the potatoes on top.

If you don’t feel like eating it right now, you can wrap it and freeze it for a future quick dinner (which is exactly what I did; I love having a fast meal on those days where you just don’t have time or energy to cook).

 

Do you have a recipe using Thanksgiving leftovers that you want to share?
