I used ground turkey today but previous times I have used leftover roasted chicken, or cooked chicken breast, cut up, or leftover roasted turkey, or ground beef. I browned the ground turkey in a frying pan and added diced onion and a clove of garlic diced, and salt and pepper to taste. You can add whatever spices you prefer. After it was browned I drained the meat and put it into a roasting pan and added a can of cream of mushroom soup and a bit of water, you can make it as dry or as wet a mixture as you like. I then mixed this all together.
I used a mixture of frozen peas and carrots which I precooked and added a can of corn, drained and spread it evenly over top of the meat mixture. You can use whichever combination of vegetables you have on hand.
I boiled 8 peeled potatoes and then mashed them, adding margarine, milk and cheese whiz to them. Today I added the cheese whiz but sometimes I put in a can of cream of mushroom soup, you could also add cream cheese or shredded cheese, or just plain mashed potatoes. I spread this over the top of the vegetable layer.
I then dotted the top with margarine and sprinkled paprika all over. Other times I have sprinkled shredded cheese over the top of the casserole.
About an hour before supper I will put the casserole in the oven and heat it with the lid off for an hour at 350 degrees.
Add a tossed salad and you are done ... Supper is served!
