Leftover Turkey Casserole

Whenever anyone says Thanksgiving is their favorite holiday, most people do a double-take. We, on the other hand, know the real reason for all of this November holiday love: the food. From juicy, moist roasted turkey smothered in delicious gravy to stuffing, sweet potatoes, green bean casserole, and pumpkin pie, “Turkey Day” is as much about the feast as it is about spending time with friends or family.

Whether you’re hosting so many relatives you need those extra table leaves, cozying up with just your partner and kids, or throwing a potluck-style Friendsgiving celebration with your chosen fam, you’ll likely have leftovers. Rather than scrapping them or sending them away in reusable containers you hope your guests will bring back, try whipping up this delicious one-pan Thanksgiving leftover casserole. 

Our sweet, decadent limited-edition Cranberry Mayo is the secret ingredient that adds flavor and depth to this leftover turkey casserole. Crafted with premium, purposeful ingredients, including avocado oil and Certified Humane, cage-free eggs, this delightful spread tastes like the holidays in a jar. It’s the perfect addition to take your Turkey Day leftovers to the next level!
