Have turkey left over? Whip up a turkey casserole.

Leftovers are one of the best things about the holidays, but it can be a challenge to put a new spin on the same foods after the big meal. Turkey sandwiches are tasty, but that seems more like a lunch idea. And, if the family baked a large turkey, it’s nice to have some extra turkey recipes in the recipe file.

There are many Southern casserole recipes featuring turkey, but this one is super easy. After cooking up a storm for Thanksgiving, Christmas or any other holiday, it’s nice to have something simple but still with that comfort food feeling.
