Thanksgiving leftovers pie

Need a new idea besides turkey soup or enchiladas for your turkey dinner leftovers? Try this quick and easy recipe that's just as good as your original meal. This is less than a recipe and more of a methodology (ps sorry for the quality of the pics; lighting was not great).

First, grease a 13x9 pan (if you have less leftovers, use an 8x8). Add about 2-3 cups of cooked turkey; chop or shred with your hands. I added some sauteed onions and celery which was extra from the stuffing.



Next, add about 1 1/4 cups of warm gravy; this makes it easier to spread. If you are out of gravy, you can use this recipe for my gluten-free gravy or anything you like.


If you have stuffing, add 2 cups on top of the gravy-turkey mixture and then place peas and corn on top (about 1 or 1 1/2 cups of each).


After that, top with mashed potatoes. We had 2 containers!


Bake in a 350F oven for 35-45 minutes or until the gravy is bubbling up. Scoop and serve. We loved it and served it with a little bit of cranberry sauce. Yes, we had that leftover as well. The stuffing added a new dimension. Not that you can tell, but the dish was all gluten-free, including the stuffing. You could use whatever you have at home. Hopefully, this will be the end of the leftovers! I hope you enjoy it.
