Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 cups cooked turkey, shredded or diced
- 3 cups prepared stuffing
- 3 cups mashed potatoes
- 1 cup canned cranberry sauce
- 1.5 cups gravy
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella or cheddar cheese
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish with butter or non-stick cooking spray.
Spread the shredded or diced turkey evenly in the bottom of the prepared baking dish.
Layer the cranberry sauce on top of the turkey, spreading it out with a spoon to evenly distribute.
Add the prepared stuffing evenly over the cranberry sauce layer, gently pressing it down.
Pour the gravy evenly over the stuffing to keep it moist.
Spread the mashed potatoes over the stuffing and gravy layer, smoothing it out with a spatula.
Sprinkle the shredded cheese evenly over the mashed potatoes.
Dot the top with small pieces of butter for extra richness.
Bake in the preheated oven for 25–30 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly, and the casserole is heated through.
Remove the casserole from the oven and let it rest for 5 minutes. Sprinkle fresh parsley on top for garnish, if desired.
Serve warm and enjoy the comforting flavors of Thanksgiving!
