Turkey Rice Casserole image

The recipe for this creamy and comforting casserole came from my aunt as a way to use leftover turkey. I love it so much, however, that I don't wait for leftovers to make it. The green chilies provide the memorable flavor. -Tamy Baker, Kearney, Nebraska

I love that this casserole is made with brown rice. It's a healthier option than white rice, and it gives the casserole a nutty flavor.
