Instead of cooked turkey, I used cooked chicken... it was a great meal. Cannot wait to try with cooked turkey. Thanks for a great recipe.<br/><br/>Update: Dec. 30, 2011 - Great for leftover turkey - have used this numerous times. -
Terrific way to use that leftover turkey. Mildly flavored, even kids would gobble this. Easy enough to spice up is that's more to your liking. I had cajun spiced grilled turkey on hand and that lent itself marvelously to this recipe. Not a thing I'll change next time. Great recipe, Nova Scotia Cook.

Retired for the last 9 years and enjoying every minute of it. Will be celebrating 45 years of marriage to my high school sweetheart this year. Love trying new recipes and allowing my hubby to be my taste tester.
