Notes

  • You can use leftover roasted turkey or ground turkey cooked with seasonings.
  • Feel free to add other vegetables like peas, corn, or green beans.
  • For a richer flavor, you can use chicken broth instead of milk.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
