Thanksgiving Leftovers Casserole

Thanksgiving Leftovers Casserole is a recipe I am super excited to share with everyone. This casserole utilizes all your favorite Thanksgiving day leftovers into one amazing dish. It begins with a layer of stuffing, topped with a mixture of turkey, vegetables and cream of mushroom soup, with a heaping layer of mashed potatoes, topped with more delicious stuffing and gravy drizzled on top.

Your family may be like my own. The day after Thanksgiving is like a rush to fridge to call out what leftovers are yours. Mine are Pumpkin Cheesecake and Perfect Mashed Potatoes so don’t even think about it. I know my husband hides the leftover turkey and peanut butter pie every single year. Thanksgiving leftovers Casserole fixes this mad rush to consume your favorites the day after the holiday. We have a nice lunch and I put together this really easy and crazy good casserole. Feel free to exchange ingredients, maybe do some carrots and celery instead of green beans, try mashed sweet potatoes, ham instead of turkey. Use what you have… which brings up ingredient amounts. If you don’t have the exact amount of an ingredient, it’s not the end of the world just simply use what you have left.
