Just in time for Thanksgiving leftovers:
Cooking spray a casserole dish or baking pan. Smooth a layer of mashed potatoes over the bottom of the pan about 1 -2 inches thick. Top potatoes with chicken or turkey gravy. Arrange a layer of chopped turkey meat on top of gravy, then top with a layer of stuffing. Preheat oven to 350ยบ. Bake for 45 – 50 minutes or until hot through. Cooking time may vary depending on the thickness of the layers used.
This dish makes a great freezer meal. Cover well, or place dish in a freezer bag and seal. Thaw for about 24 hours before cooking and cook according to instruction above. If baking directly from the freezer, cook 1 hour covered, then uncover and continue baking for an additional 30 – 40 minutes.
Casserole is done when hot in the middle.
