This moist casserole is a great way to finish extra turkey. Dotted with pretty cranberries, the satisfying hot dish is a perfect way to warm up chilly winter nights. -Alice Slagter of Wyoming, Michigan

Terrible! Very bland, feel like I wasted leftovers that could have been used in way more tastier ways!

i used 1/2 package prepackaged stuffing instead of the called for breadcrumbs. i then needed more liquid so i added 2 more cups broth. it turned out great...almost like a turkey dinner...

This recipe really perked up my leftover turkey! It has TONS of flavour and I loved the zing that the cranberries gave it. I served it with some mashed potatoes and veggies and it was like Thanksgiving casserole. I don't like the taste of leftover poultry, so this was a wonderful way to use it up!
