Good Use of leftover turkey, Member LisaBiocco

I made the recipe withonly 1 can of soup because it was all I had. Added a little extra milk and enough water to rinse out the soup can. Also used pecans instead of almonds. It was good but took a long time to prepare. My husband and son liked it. I will make it again.
