Orange Turkey Casserole

11/3/2011

0 Comments

 
Last Friday our church had a Harvest Pot Blessing which is like a Harvest supper except everyone brings a dish of food and we don't charge anything.

I'd cleaned out the sunroom freezer a couple weeks a before and found an extra turkey. I'd bought one in Sept for Thanksgiving and hubby had bought another one on sale at the beginning of Oct. And the his sister invited us over to her place for the big meal and always supplies her own turkey. So the Harvest Pot Blessing was the perfect opportunity to cook up the extra one.

It just happened that I phoned another church member about an hour after I put the turkey in to roast and she said she had a turkey in the oven, too. Well, we couldn't both bring a plate of sliced turkey, so I said I'd bring a casserole.

But which casserole to bring? I finally settled on a quick and easy one with 6 ingredients. I didn't take a photo this time, but I will the next time I make it - probably during the Christmas holidays when I have turkey leftovers.

What makes this casserole so special and Harvest looking is the use of Knorr's Orange Soup made with Butternut Squash, carrots and curry instead of Cream of Chicken or another Cream soup. The soup added colour and a nice flavour although I usually don't appreciate this spice. The curry definitely worked in this recipe.

Turkey Stuffing Bake

Preheat oven to 375°F.

Grease a 13x9x2" baking dish.

Ingredients:       2 cups (500 ml carton)      Knorr Orange Soup    
                                1 cup                                          water           
                                1 pkg (6 ounces)                    Stuffing mix
                                2 cups                                        Cooked Turkey, cubed
                                2 cups                                        Frozen Peas and Carrots
                                1 cup                                           Cheese, shredded (I used Mozzarella)

Combine all ingredients in order given. Mix well.

Transfer to prepared baking dish.

Bake, uncovered, at 375°F for 25 - 30 mins until heated through.

Yield: 8 servings.

    Kitchen Journal

    I've kept a kitchen journal for years to help me locate favourite recipes in my 100 cook book collection.

    The journal was especially handy during the years I entered baking products in local and provincial fairs.

    As I taught my children how to bake first and then cook, they filled in their own journals. I still have my girls' journals although they may have started 'grown up' ones when they left home.  These handwritten journals are a treasure trove of recipes, personal observations, and culinary rewards. 

    However, our handwritten  journals fail in the ability to share recipes and kitchen knowledge. That's where this new online journal takes over.

    Please join us (the Draper's Acres crew) by sharing your own observations in a comment or by emailing us through our contact page .
