Leftover Turkey in a Phyllo Crust image

What a great way to have your leftover turkey, chicken, ham or anything else leftover. It looks beautiful and tastes ever so good. I serve this with a fresh green salad and that's it. Try this for a bridge luncheon or company dinner. Depending on the appetites cut the pie accordingly. This recipe was originally from Appeal Magazine

This recipe was a bit too bland for my taste. I think I would have liked it more if I had added some more spices to the turkey.

I made this recipe for my family, and they loved it! The turkey was so tender and juicy, and the phyllo crust was perfectly crispy. I would definitely recommend this recipe to anyone looking for a delicious and easy way to use up leftover turkey.
