Here's another recipe that's great after having leftover turkey. Adding the turkey into a luscious bechamel sauce keeps the meat moist. This also utilizes more of your leftover veggies. A classic a la king uses onion but I had scallions. It also uses mushrooms but my husband is allergic to them. I added an extra bell pepper in place of them. You can serve this classically by itself, with toast points or over rice. One thing I like about this is I can make it using leftovers but then freeze it for later use.
