Notes
- While this recipe specifies using instant potatoes you could use leftover mashed potatoes or an equivalent amount of the premade potatoes you can buy in the refrigerated department.
- If you are making this outside of the holiday season and can't find turkey, you could use chopped sliced deli turkey or even chopped rotisserie chicken.
- Chicken stuffing mix would be a good substitute for the turkey stuffing if you can't find that.
