TURKEY VEGETABLE CASSEROLE

I use a very thick slice of smoked or Cajun seasoned turkey from the deli for this recipe except after Thanksgiving when I use leftover roasted turkey. This is another dish that my vegetable hating child gobbled up. She's 18 now and away at college and still looks forward to having it. My vegetarian son loves it when I leave...

Tips:

  • Brown the meat: Browning the meat before adding it to the casserole will help to develop its flavor and prevent it from becoming dry.
  • Don't overcook the vegetables: Vegetables should be cooked until they are tender but still have a slight crunch. Overcooking them will make them mushy.
  • Use a variety of vegetables: This will give your casserole a more complex flavor and texture.
  • Season the casserole well: Use a combination of salt, pepper, and other herbs and spices to taste.
  • Let the casserole rest before serving: This will allow the flavors to meld and the casserole to set.
