This was a complete and total hit in my house! Nothing was left. I used leftover turkey. I had carrots on hand that I needed to use up so I sliced and steamed them in place of the cooked baby carrots. I used frozen peas and just let them cook/ heat up while the mixture baked in the oven. As a Volunteer Field Editor I highly recommend this recipe and will definitely make it again!

This was a good use for leftover turkey from Thanksgiving, and pretty easy too. I made everything in a normal pan, then transferred it to an 8x8. I then used the larger biscuits, so it only took about 5 or 6 to fill the top. I lowered the temperature to 360 (the biscuit tube said to put it at 350, so I kind of did in between). Despite the lower temperature, the biscuits were done on top (golden brown), but still completely raw on the bottom. Also, it tasted WAYYYY too much like butter. Overwhelmingly so. Maybe next time I should put aluminum foil on top to get the inside to cook more. Not sure what to do about the butter taste though. I'd give this another go but I'd probably try other recipes first.

Definitely adding this to my list of things to make using my Thanksgiving leftovers! Such an easy dinner recipe for the holiday months... and a perfect warm up for a Wisconsin winter!

Made this recipe for my husband, but used chicken instead of turkey, he loved it! Next time will add garlic and poultry seasoning for a little more flavor. Great recipe! Thanks!

This is a really good recipe that works as is or with modifications! I used leftover homemade turkey gravy, frozen peas and carrots and homemade buttermilk biscuits. (This way I could have less sodium since I hardly ever cook with salt.) I couldn't find the leftover turkey I froze, so I used cooked chicken instead. I also added dried minced garlic and poultry seasoning. My husband packed up some to take to work for lunch which is definitely a sign he liked it, LOL!

Very good. Easy to make and tasty! A bit too much salt for my taste, but that is easy to adjust. I will be making this again.
