Hotdish is a wonderful thing. Protein, vegetables, cheese and potatoes all wrapped up into one entree. Can be made from scratch or from leftovers, so it's the perfect Thanksgiving (or after Thanksgiving) meal!

Cooking Instructions

40 min
  1. 1

    Preheat your oven to 400°F, prep a 13x9 pan with cooking spray or your choice of light oil.

  2. 2

    Shred the turkey into bite-sized pieces, add to your dish. Enough to cover, but as much as you want, depending on how protein heavy your diet is.

  3. 3

    Add the corn and green beans, spread evenly for best consistency.

  4. 4

    Add your gravy. If you have mushrooms, as I do, again - even consistency.

  5. 5

    Cover with mashed potatoes, spread thoroughly, and bake for 25 minutes uncovered.

  6. 6

    Cover with cheese, bake for another 15 minutes.

  7. 7

    For the last few minutes of baking, add fried onions if desired, and set to a low broil just long enough to brown your cheese.

  8. 8

    Enjoy!
