Thanksgiving Leftovers Casserole

Nov 27, 2022Brian Witmer

This recipe makes 8 cups

Directions:

  1. Set oven to 375°F
  2. Spread 2 cups of stuffing evenly on the bottom of a 9x13 casserole dish
  3. Add a layer of shredded turkey on top of the stuffing
  4. In a bowl, mix ¼ cup Greek yogurt with cranberry sauce
  5. Spread this mixture evenly over the turkey layer
  6. In another bowl, combine ½ cup Greek yogurt with mashed potatoes (add cheese if desired)
  7. Spread this mixture evenly over the turkey
  8. Layer 2 more cups of stuffing on top
  9. Press gently into the mashed potatoes to prevent burning
  10. Bake at 375°F for 40 minutes, or until the center is bubbling; let it cool
  11. Add parchment paper to your trays
  12. Spread the casserole evenly onto your trays
  13. Add dividers if using. We like the 10-portion setting
  14. Pre Freeze when possible
  15. Freeze dry (my cycle time was 34 hours)
  16. Store in jars for short-term use or in mylar bags for long-term storage

Rehydration: 

Add 2 of your ten divider portions or about 1 ½ cups of the freeze-dried casserole to a bowl with ¾-1 cup of hot water. Cover and let it sit for 2-3 minutes. Stir and let it sit for 3-4 more minutes.  Enjoy

Notes:  

Depending on what is in your mashed potatoes(heavy cream, butter etc), this may not be good for long-term storage
