My contribution… Turkey Divan My basic formula: 11x13 pan, make bed of par cooked green beans, layer of shredded turkey meat, thin layer of mayo + lemon juice + curry powder. Then top with layer of sharp cheddar. I don’t bother with bread crumbs. Some go with broccoli instead. I eyeball this, but you can find many recipes on line. They’re usually more complicated than what I do.
