We hosted Easter dinner at our house this year, and as revenge from not getting any left over turkey for the past few years we kept ALL the leftover turkey for ourselves.
That was a mistake
We had so much left over food it was insane.
So I decided to get a little inventive tonight for dinner and for once my creativity payed off so I thought I should document!
This is what I had leftover in my fridge
Turkey
Green Bean casserole
Corn
I searched and searched for a casserole recipe that I liked and Didn't find anything. So this is my made up recipe
Ingredients:
2 tbs of butter
3 tbs of garlic
1 can of sliced mushrooms
approx 4 cups of cooked corn (or whatever you have left over)
ditto for the green bean casserole
4 cups cooked spiral pasta
2 cans mushroom soup
1 cup cheddar cheese
1 cup Frenches onion crisps
Method:
Preheat oven to 350. Boil water and cook pasta as per package instructions
in the meantime, melt the butter in a pan, once it is melted add the garlic and mushrooms. Once those are sufficiently done add the leftover corn and green bean casserole. Let that cook on medium heat stirring occasionally. Goo back to the pasta, Once it is finished strain it and pour it back into the pot- Add the leftover turkey ripping it into small/medium sized pieces. Add the contents of the pan into the pasta, add the salt and pepper to taste, as well as the 2 cans of mushroom soup. pour the mixture into a large casserole dish, Throw it in the oven and let it cook for about 45 mins. after that time has passed, grate the cheese and sprinkle it on the top (ps. if your oven is anything like mine, you will want to change your heat from bottom to top so the cheese can get all melty) also add the onion crispies and let that cook for the remaining 15 mins.
And there you have it!
Turned out so yummy I don't have any to take a photo of!
Happy Easter everyone! Enjoy the leftovers!
