I was first introduced to this casserole as a child by my grandmother. It's a tradition I've carried on with my own family. They prefer this meal the day after Thanksgiving more than the Thanksgiving dinner itself! I don't use the vegetables at all, as we usually have leftover green bean casserole to serve on the side. I order them differently, too - stuffing on the bottom, then turkey, then mashed potatoes, then top with the gravy and poke holes all the way down to the stuffing layer so it gets the hot bubbly gravy, too. Serve with leftover cranberry sauce, too! Heaven on a plate.

My dh and I loved this! I put a layer of stuffing, then turkey, gravy then mashed potatoes. I forgot about the veggies! But this made the stuffing even better and everything came together wonderfully. I did let it bake for about 45 minutes, just because I was busy, thanks so much!

We had this last night. I also layered it differently, stuffing on bottom, turkey, creamed corn, threw in some French's onions, then the mashed potatoes, more onions and topped with shredded cheese. Very tasty! A definite keeper!

I made this recipe on 12/2/11 for two events, " Hustle And Bustle Of December " in the Food Photo Forum and for the " Let's P-A-R-T-Y " Event in Cooking Contests And Events Forum. Except for subbing some cooked peas & carrots for the frozen mixed veggies, this recipe was made exactly as it was written. I thought the taste was just " o.k.", but my SO seemed to have enjoyed it quite well. Thanks for posting and, " Keep Smiling :) "

LT- This is my first time making this casserole although I read and heard great reviews. DH is not a afan on the 2nd time around stuff but I told him this is pot pie without the extra breading of the crust. Well we certainly enjoyed it. I used leftover everything including veggies. I even had a 2nd go around the next day for lunch. As there was a substantial bit left over (2 0f us) I froze a portion to do a reheat day later on. I am hoping it is as good the next time around. Now off to make the same type dish with leftover ham before soup making. Thank you.

Good way to use up leftovers. I added a can of Campbell cream of celery soup to the mix and used canned mixed vegtables. Also sprinkled Velveeta cheese over the stuffing. It was amazingly good. Thanks for a great idea, will make it again

I gave this recipe 4 stars. My family really liked this recipe. My husband who is not a big fan of the Turkey take 2 recipes even liked it. My only complaint was I used mixed frozen veggies and they were not cooked enough for me, so next time I will cook them first. When I made this I didn't have homemade Turkey gravy as we had deep fried our Turkey this year, so I used a can of Turkey gravy and a can of chicken cause I only had 1 can of Turkey gravy. I ended up using the 2 cups of Turkey and mashed potatoes. As for the stuffing I used Stove Top stuffing and we don't eat alot of it so I probably had almost a full box. Overall this turned out better then I thought it would. I'm looking forward to trying this with other meats. Thanks for posting a good recipe! Christine (internetnut)

Talk about quick and easy. I used the leftovers I had by starting out with mashed potatoes, turkey, frozen peas and corn, homemade stuffing and gravy. I sprinkled a little bit of cheese on top to give it a little bit of flavor. The problem I had was my dish wasn't quite hot at the end of the cooking time. The gravy I added was in a gel state because it was in the fridge. Next time I think I will heat it up before adding it to the casserole. My potatoes seemed a little dry so next time I will add more milk or sour cream when making them. DH had 2 helpings and gave it two thumbs up.

This was ok, but we have other turkey casseroles we like better. We hate gravy, though, and I had no stuffing, so I had to change things up a bit. I probably didn't make good substitutions.

This was great and ridiculously easy! It was nice to use up all of my leftovers in one dish. I layered it this way:
stuffing, chopped turkey, leftover broccoli casserole, (all the veggies I had) cream of mushroom soup (someone in this house ate up all of the gravy so I had to use the soup. lol) mashed potatoes, and finally, grated cheddar cheese on top. I also baked it for 45 minutes, it came out so tasty! I can see how versatile this recipe is, there are so many things one could add. I froze 3 large squares for later use. Next time, I will try it with the gravy. I will be making this year-round, thanks so much for posting!

I made this as directed but used frozen corn for my vegetables. My husband and I liked this...especially for how easy it was. I might try some sliced almonds on top next time just for some crunch.

This recipe was very nice. I liked the fact that all the leftovers were in one dish. My vegetable mixture was comprised of carrots, rutabaga and asparagus. Made as directed. :)

My husband gobbled this up!! I won't even say how many servings he had, but he loved it as we all did. I also put the potatos on the bottom, turkey, frozen corn and then gravy over it all. Since I had no stuffing left, I used a pastry shell and fitted it over it and it was great! I did have to switch the oven to broil for a few minutes to cook the pastry better, but I would definately do that again. This is a keeper - thanks!

Oh YUM! Made this tonight with Thanksgiving leftovers- totally awesome. I also added cheddar cheese, and topped it with French's cheddar fried onions. A keeper.

Delicious! I made it pretty much as you directed, only I seasoned each layer with a bit of s&p, put a 2nd layer of mashed potatoes over the stuffing, & sprinkled a bit of shredded cheddar and chives on top before baking.

I made a "Thanksgiving" dinner (turkey, stuffing, mashed potatoes, etc.) over the weekend and had a bunch left. I had leftover corn, so I just used that in place of the mixed vegetables, but did everything else the same. Thanks for posting such an easy, great tasting way to use up leftovers!

WOW. We loved this. My mashed potatoes were actually leftover Recipe#134939 so there was a little spicy/sweet thing going on in the bottom layer. I used turkey and canned fat free turkey gravy. My stuffing was leftover Crock Pot Stuffing which has apples etc. Really tremendous way to meld all the holiday flavors together. I served it with homemade applesauce and 3 kinds of cranberry sauce (since we all like different kinds!).

YUMMY! I made this using Thanksgiving leftovers. Everyone loved it. I used a can of yellow corn as my veggie. I liked it because you get a bit of everything in each bite. Fantastic...Thanks!!

The flavor of this casserole is so good. So far, the best way I have found to use up turkey leftovers.
