One of the questions that always follow the Thanksgiving Day meal is what to do with the leftover turkey.  We begin looking through our cookbooks for a recipe for the turkey leftovers.  Many of us package some the turkey up and send it home with our guests and still have lots leftover. 

Today I made the journey through my recipes looking for a turkey leftover recipe.  What I found was an easy chicken casserole recipe that a friend gave to me years ago.  Believe this would be a recipe that a substitution of turkey for the chicken could easily be made, since chicken and turkey are in the poultry family. 

Easy Chicken Casserole (substitute turkey for chicken) 

Bake a regular pan of cornbread. 

5 pieces of chicken breast – boil until done.  (I prefer to cook my chicken in the crock-pot overnight.)

1 stick of butter or margarine melted. 

In a large bowl crumble in the cornbread.

Next sprinkle onion flakes over cornbread crumbs.

Then sprinkle sage over cornbread crumbs.

Pour the 1 stick of melted (butter or margarine) over the cornbread crumbs.  Mix well. 

Take ½ of cornbread mix and place in the bottom of a 13x9 pan.  Pull boiled chicken in little strips and lie on top of cornbread mix. 

In another bowl mix 2 cans of cream of chicken soup with 2 can of the water you boiled the chicken in (broth).  (If you're substituting turkey for the chicken and do not have any leftover broth from the turkey then you can use canned chicken broth). 

Pour the soup mixture over the cornbread mix.  Next place the rest of the cornbread mix on top. 

Bake in a preheated 375-degree oven for about 45 minutes or until brown on top. 

Hope you find this recipe helpful for your turkey leftovers.  I have a friend that makes a similar recipe each year and serves as the dressing dish with their Christmas dinner.

Enjoy your day! 

Cheers, 

Gin

    About

    Welcome to Great Finds For You.  Hi, I'm Gin, creator of Great Finds For You. My home is in the foothills of the Appalachian Mountains. It is indeed a wonderful place to live. I love family, friends, good books, helping others and adore dogs. A little over a year ago I adopted an abused dog from a local animal shelter and I cannot describe the joy that she has brought to my life. The first passion in my life is the Lord. My inspiration for creating Great Finds For You stemmed from my own personal experience of not having sufficient time for gift shopping.  The joy of gift giving can many times be lost when we lack sufficient time in our busy schedules for gift shopping.  The goal at Great Finds For You is to provide great gift giving ideas and tips to help inspire you with your gift giving; along with a choice selection of great gift products, which can help with your gift giving needs; thereby saving you time and shopper's stress.
