Turkey Potato Casserole

I like turkey leftovers for the casserole options out there, I'm not a huge fan of turkey sandwiches though. I've pulled apart my leftover turkey and froze it in 2 cup bags; it makes it easy to pop out of the freezer for a delicious casserole. This one is Hubby's favorite and it's simple to throw together if you have leftover mashed potatoes. Instant potatoes will also work for the topping.

There are a few GF canned mushroom soups out there, some of them cause me to react digestively to the preservatives in them but the Walnut Acres soup didn't give me any problems. The only place I've seen this is Oak Street Natural Market, I haven't really looked for it anywhere else. It's not as thick as some of the other GF cream of mushroom soups so try the different brands and see which one you like best. I know Healthy Valley makes a GF soup and you can find it at most grocery stores.
