ROAST TURKEY, ASPARAGUS AND WILD RICE CASSEROLE
Not your average casserole. Roasted asparagus, a sherry cream sauce with wild rice, roasted almonds and toasted bread crumbs make this a dish to entertain with or just a big family dinner. This served in individual serving dishes is wonderful or a dish made for two to serve for a very elegant dinner. You can always switch this up by use leftover chicken and even broccoli or green beans if you are not a fan of asparagus.

Steps:
- Rice -- Prepare the wild rice accordingly to directions and set to the side. You can make the quick cooking, original anything you want, even white and wild rice mix. I just like the wild rice flavor for this. But please you can use what you enjoy best.
- Asparagus -- Roast the asparagus (broccoli or green beans if you are not using asparagus), as the rice cooks. On a cookie sheet covered with foil or parchment or even on a grill or grill pan, drizzle the asparagus with olive oil, salt and pepper and roast at 400 for about 7-10 minutes or grill for 5 just until 1/2 way done. Remove and cool.
- The Main Part -- In a medium pot, melt the butter on medium heat and stir in the flour to make a roux. Slowly add in the milk and bring to a medium low boil until the sauce thickens. Then stir in the turkey and sherry and mix until combined and heated through. Add a little salt and pepper to your taste and the fresh parsley.
- In a large casserole dished sprayed with pam or greased add the rice, then top with the turkey and cream sauce, asparagus (or other vegetable), positioned through the dish and top with bread crumbs and almonds. Cover with foil and bake at 375 for about 25 minutes until bubbly. The last 10 minutes I remove the foil so the bread crumbs can brown. You can also put under the broiler to get it nice and brown the last few minutes if you prefer that.
- As I mentioned, individual serving dishes make a great presentation but it can just as easily be done in a large casserole dish as well. ENJOY!

Steps:
- Mix together the allspice, cinnamon and pepper, and divide into two equal portions (1 teaspoon each). Set aside.
- Heat 1 tablespoon of the olive oil over medium heat in a heavy 2- or 3-quart saucepan. Add the onion and a pinch of salt. Cook, stirring, until tender, about five minutes. Add the rice and 1 teaspoon of the spice mixture, and stir until the grains begin to crackle. Add 2 cups chicken stock and salt to taste (1/2 to 3/4 teaspoon). Bring to a boil, reduce the heat and simmer 15 minutes until the liquid has been absorbed by the rice. Remove the lid, place a kitchen towel over the pot and then return the lid. Allow to sit undisturbed for 10 minutes.
- Heat the oven to 350 degrees. Oil a 2-quart baking dish. Heat the remaining tablespoon of oil over medium heat in a large, heavy skillet. Add the garlic. In a few seconds, as soon as it begins to smell fragrant, add the remaining spices and the turkey. Stir together for about a minute until the turkey is coated with the mixture. Remove from the heat. Season to taste with salt.
- Spread the rice in the casserole in an even layer. Top with the turkey. Douse with the remaining stock.
- Place the garlic in a mortar and pestle with a pinch of salt, and puree. Stir into the yogurt, along with the lemon juice. Spread over the turkey in an even layer, making sure to completely cover the meat so that it doesn't dry out in the oven. Sprinkle on the nuts. Place in the oven, and bake 15 to 20 minutes, just until warmed through. Do not allow the yogurt to bubble. Serve hot or warm.

TURKEY AND BROWN RICE CASSEROLE
This recipe tastes rich, but has very little fat. *After reading Annacia's review I realized, she is right and wanted to mention that if using chicken or all white meat turkey, chicken broth would be the best choice. When I use beef broth, I use Imagine Organic Beef Broth, which has a mild, more subtle taste than other beef broths and I always use dark and light turkey meat.*

This is a tasty, simple and convenient way to use leftover turkey and/or leftover rice, and a great casserole to take to a potluck. Note: Edited on 1/1/08 to reduce milk in ingredient list from 1 3/4 to 1 1/4 cups. I actually just fill a soup can with milk, but the ingredient list requires a measurement, and I took a guess.

- Use a creamy sauce: A creamy sauce helps to keep the casserole moist and flavorful. You can use a canned cream of mushroom soup, or make your own sauce using milk, flour, and butter.
- Top with cheese: A layer of cheese on top of the casserole helps to brown it and add flavor. You can use any type of cheese you like, but cheddar cheese, mozzarella cheese, or Parmesan cheese are all good options.
