Notes
Different Cheese:
Use what you like or what you have. Sprinkle mozzarella cheese or any good melty cheese can be added to the turkey mixture.
Mayo Replacement:
Cream of Mushroom soup or cream of chicken soup are wonderful to use in this recipe.
Season:
If you need a little more, add salt, pepper, garlic powder to the casserole.
Moisture:
If it still seems a little dry add, melted butter or chicken stock or turkey stock or top with leftover gravy.
Pasta:
Add a little cooked pasta and top with sour cream for a different use for these thanksgiving leftovers.
