Mom's Turkey Divine {RECIPE} and {GIVEAWAY}

Did you know that this week is Turkey Comfort Food Makeover Week?

With Christmas approaching, we find ourselves looking forward to our next large family meal together where we will enjoy turkey. Turkey is delicious and nutritious and if you cook a large one, there are plenty of opportunities and ideas for how to use up your left overs.

The following recipe is something that I associate with Thanksgiving and Christmas time as my Mom always uses her turkey leftovers to make this yummy casserole!

Recipe: Mom's Turkey Divine

Ingredients: 

• cooked Canadian turkey (leftover dark or white meat OR freshly poached), sliced or chopped (equivalent to approximately 1-2 pounds of meat)
• 1 bunch of broccoli washed and sliced into medium sized pieces
• 1 can cream of chicken soup (we use the reduced fat ones)
• 1/2 cup mayo (we use low fat)
• 1 tsp lemon juice
• 1/4 tsp curry
• 1/2 cup sour cream (we usually use light or no fat)
• Approximately 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese

Step 1:
Poach turkey breast (see instructions below for how do this).
Step 2:
Lightly steam broccoli.
Step 3:
Slice or chop turkey breast.
Step 4:
Mix sauce ingredients together.
Step 5:
Shred cheese.
Step 6:
Place broccoli on bottom of greased 9x13 pan.
Place slices/pieces of cooked turkey on top of the broccoli.
Step 7:
Pour sauce mixture over broccoli and turkey.
Step 8:
Cover with shredded mozzarella cheese.
Step 9:
Cover with loose foil and bake in 350 degree oven for approximately 45 minutes or until hot and bubbly.

Note: To make this a more filling dish, feel free to steam rice and add a layer of rice at the bottom of your casserole dish/pan.

How to Poach Turkey Breast

Step 1:
Place turkey breasts in a large sized pot so that they lie in one layer.
Step 2:
Cover turkey with water (covering approximately 1 inch above the meat).
Step 3:
Add a stock cube if desired for additional flavour.
Step 4:
Cover pot with a lid and bring water to a boil.
Step 5:
Leave lid partly on and turn heat down to a light simmer (only a few bubbles rising to the top) for 10 minutes.
Step 6:
Cover pot with lid and let sit with burner OFF for approximately 15 minutes or until turkey reads an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).
