This is an easy meal that can also be topped onto baked puff pastry shells, biscuits or rice, you can make this using leftover turkey in place of chicken, the onion and garlic may be omitted if desired, I like to add it in for extra flavor, this recipe may easily be doubled, servings is only estimated.
