Turkey and Rice Casserole

Submitted by PanNan

"This is a tasty, simple and convenient way to use leftover turkey and/or leftover rice, and a great casserole to take to a potluck. Note: Edited on 1/1/08 to reduce milk in ingredient list from 1 3/4 to 1 1/4 cups. I actually just fill a soup can with milk, but the ingredient list requires a measurement, and I took a guess."

I suppose ingredients are everything but this wasn't very tasty, somewhat bland. We used turkey that had been deep fried with creole butter and home canned veggies and had to go crazy with the cajun seasoning to get any flavor. Not for us.

I liked this a lot & my husband did too. Really enjoyed it. Would use low sodium soy sauce and then the Cajun seasoning, as the seasoning has salt as the first ingredient, but this does not taste salty as a result, very very good in fact. A really good way to use leftover turkey in an interesting way and would make good lunches, too.

Although this tasted good (VERY good), it was a bit soupy for our liking, we ended up putting it over biscuits and that was perfect. If I make this in the future I will skip the rice and pour over mashed potatoes or biscuits to absorb some of the soupiness. I would also skip the soy sauce and up the cajun seasoning. Thanks for a fun recipe and a good way to use up my letovers! Made enough for dinner one night (for two)and lunch for two days for one. Only thing I did different was use fresh green beans since I didn't have any leftovers and we hate canned beans. I followed the advice of another reviewer and only used one can of milk, but I did a full recipe.

Not to shabby everyone ate it and no complaints,lol. Didnt have any cajun seasoning so I substituted soul seasoning. Next time i will use cajun seasoning cause this dish needs a bit of a kick. This is great comfort food though and one dish we will enjoy again.

Comfort food!!! We really enjoyed this casserole. I did not have 2 cans of mushroom soup on hand so substituted one can for cheddar cheese soup. I left half of the casserole turkey free being a vegetarian. Thanks for a great recipe PanNan!!!
