How to make Turkey Divan from Thanksgiving leftovers
Our family has a traditional of making Turkey Divan a day or two after Thanksgiving. It's a relatively easy to make casserole containing some healthy ingredients (like broccoli) to start easing us back into normal eating patterns.
Things You'll Need
- Leftover Turkey
- 2 1/2 lbs Broccoli
- 4 Tbsp butter
- 4 Tbps flour
- 2 cups milk
- Swiss Cheese
- (optional) 1/4 cup white wine
- 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- salt
- pepper
Instructions
-
Cut the broccoli up into bite-sized pieces and steam it until soft.
-
Cover the bottom of a casserole dish with the steamed broccoli. This is where you get to choose how healthy this dish is - a thin layer is a token stab at healthfulness, where a couple inches starts to really mean something.
-
Cover the broccoli with a layer of leftover turkey, cut into bite-sized pieces. Either white or dark meat will do.
-
Melt the butter into a saucepan over medium heat. Add the flour and mix well. Slowly add the milk, stirring constantly.
-
Add a cup or two of grated swiss cheese to the sauce. Here's another opportunity to choose your desired level of healthfulness - a lot of cheese will be tasty, but rich!
-
(Optional) Add the wine to the sauce.
-
Add salt and pepper to the sauce to taste.
-
Pour the sauce over the turkey. Top with a sprinkling of grated parmesan cheese.
-
Bake in a 325 degree oven for about 15 minutes - until the cheese on top is melted.
