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.

This is a great recipe for a quick and easy weeknight meal. I use rotisserie chicken instead of turkey and it turns out great. I also like to add a little bit of shredded cheese to the sauce.

I've made this dish several times and it's always a hit. The turkey is always moist and tender, and the sauce is creamy and flavorful. I love to serve it with mashed potatoes and green beans.
