MUSHROOM AND TURKEY CASSEROLE (FROM COOKING LIGHT)
A lighter way to use up Thanksgiving leftovers without the addition of any cream soups. A simple meal we enjoy with a green salad. There is a similar recipe posted, however, this is the Cooking Light Quick and Easy version that I use, and since I just spent 30 minutes going through my cookbooks trying to find it, thought I'd post it here for future reference.

- Use fresh ingredients: The fresher your ingredients, the better your casserole will taste. If possible, use organic or locally-sourced ingredients.
- Sauté the vegetables before adding them to the casserole: This will help them to caramelize and develop more flavor.
- Use a variety of mushrooms: Different types of mushrooms will give your casserole a more complex flavor. Some good options include cremini, shiitake, and oyster mushrooms.
- Don't overcook the turkey: Turkey can easily become dry and tough if it is overcooked. Cook it until it reaches an internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Use a good quality cheese: The cheese is one of the most important ingredients in this casserole, so don't skimp on quality. Use a cheese that melts well and has a good flavor.
- Top the casserole with bread crumbs or crushed crackers before baking: This will give the casserole a crispy topping.
- Let the casserole rest for 10-15 minutes before serving: This will allow the flavors to meld and the casserole to set.
