thanksgiving leftover recipesNote from Cheri:
Here's an easy and delicious way to use up leftover chicken or turkey. Keep it handy after Thanksgiving.

10 oz. frozen spinach, chopped
4 T butter, divided
3 T flour
1 1/2 C milk
1/4 C grated Parmesan cheese
1/2 C cream
2 C cooked chicken or turkey, cubed
1 tsp. salt
1/2 tsp. pepper
1/4 C dried bread crumbs

 

 

Serves 4

Preheat oven to 350°F. Cook spinach according to package directions. Drain well, then arrange in the bottom of a 1 1/2 quart casserole dish.

In a medium saucepan, melt 2 tablespoons butter, stir in flour, salt and pepper. Gradually add milk. Cook, stirring constantly, until mixture comes to a boil and thickens. Reduce heat and add cheese and cream, stirring over low heat until cheese melts. Mix in cooked chicken or turkey and pour over spinach. Sprinkle top of casserole with bread crumbs. Can be refrigerated at this point. Dot casserole with remaining butter. Bake for 15 minutes then use the broiler to lightly brown the top.
