Tips and Tricks for the BEST Turkey Bake
- Thoroughly thaw and drain the frozen broccoli. Extra liquid will result in a soupy cheese sauce.
- Consider cutting up big florets into smaller pieces.
- Make sure your turkey is not sitting in a lot of gravy. Again, the extra liquid will result in a watered-down dish.
- Have leftover chicken? This makes an excellent chicken bake, too! Substitute the turkey for chicken and use the Stove Top Stuffing for chicken.
Storing a Turkey Bake
Store this turkey bake in the refrigerator for up to 5 days in an airtight container. Reheat it in the microwave or oven.
