Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.
In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Sauté the chopped onion and celery until softened, about 5 minutes.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the cooked turkey, cooked chicken, sautéed onion and celery, and the stuffing mix.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the chicken or turkey broth, cream of chicken soup, cream of celery soup, and sour cream. Add the salt, pepper, and dried sage, if using.
Pour the wet mixture over the stuffing mixture and gently stir until evenly combined.
Transfer half of the stuffing mixture to the prepared baking dish, spreading it evenly.
Sprinkle half of the shredded cheddar cheese over the layer of stuffing.
Add the remaining stuffing mixture on top, spreading it evenly. Sprinkle the remaining cheddar cheese over the top layer.
Cover the dish with aluminum foil and bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes.
Remove the foil and bake for an additional 15 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly, and the top is slightly golden.
Allow the casserole to cool for about 5 minutes before serving. Enjoy!
