Ingredients
- 3 cups cooked turkey, shredded
- 2 cups leftover stuffing
- 1 cup green beans, trimmed and cut into bite-size pieces
- 1 cup cranberry sauce
- 1 cup gravy (homemade or store-bought)
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 cup milk
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and one more time for that cozy feel.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the shredded turkey, leftover stuffing, green beans, cranberry sauce, and gravy. Mix it all together until everything is coated and evenly distributed.
- Next up, in a separate bowl, whisk together the milk, salt, pepper, and garlic powder. Pour this mixture over the turkey mix and stir until well combined.
- Transfer the mixture into a greased 9×13-inch baking dish. Spread it out evenly.
- Top it with a generous layer of shredded cheddar cheese. Because why not add more cheese, right?
- Cover the dish with aluminum foil and bake for about 30 minutes. This allows the flavors to blend nicely.
- After 30 minutes, remove the foil and bake for an additional 15-20 minutes, or until the cheese is golden and bubbly.
- Let it cool for a few minutes before serving. Trust me, the smell is going to make everyone gather around!
