Day-after Scalloped Turkey image

This casserole is a great use of leftover Thanksgiving or Christmas turkey! Make it and put it into a casserole dish and seal well, then put it in the freezer for a couple of weeks down the line when you're craving the taste of the holidays again. :) It also travels well to potlucks, especially if you use one of those disposable foil casserole dishes! You can even make the bread cubes from leftover rolls, toasted in your oven.

I'm a vegan. Can I make this recipe without the turkey?

This recipe is a waste of time. It's not worth the effort. I wouldn't recommend it to anyone.

I'm not sure why this recipe is called 'Day-After Scalloped Turkey'. It doesn't use any leftover turkey. It's just a regular scalloped potato recipe.

This recipe is too complicated. There are too many steps and ingredients. I prefer simpler recipes.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my sauce didn't turn out creamy. It was more like a thin gravy. I'm not sure what I did wrong.

This recipe is a bit bland for my taste. I think it needs more seasoning. I added some garlic powder, onion powder, and paprika, and it was much better.

I'm not a big fan of scalloped potatoes, but I really enjoyed this recipe. The turkey and the sauce are so flavorful, and they really complement the potatoes. I served it with a side of salad, and it was a great meal.

This recipe is a bit time-consuming, but it's worth it. The turkey is so tender and juicy, and the sauce is to die for. I served it with a side of stuffing and green beans, and it was a perfect meal.
