RECIPE BACKSTORY
Use up all those holiday leftovers to create a new dish that doesn't taste like you are trying to use up leftovers. I intentionally make extra stuffing and gravy so that I make this meal for another time. Freezes well for a future meal if you just can't stand the idea of turkey and stuffing just after the holiday.
