Turkey Divan

Got Turkey? Need a last minute turkey leftovers idea? I know Thanksgiving was only a mere 2 days ago, & you might be sick of turkey by now, but let’s get to using those leftovers!

I made this last night for dinner & posted a quick pic to instagram & my personal facebook page. Apparently people thought it was a good idea, so I hurried & snapped a picture. I don’t have a white box for taking pictures after it gets dark, & this picture is less than perfect, but you get the idea. Creamy turkey, broccoli, & rice casserole dish! Delish!

Turkey Divan

Created by Amber Brady
Yields6 Servings

Ingredients

  • 2 Tbsp unsalted butter
  • 3 Tbsp all-purpose flour
  • 2 tsp chicken bouillon
  • 2 cups skim milk
  • ½ cup light miracle whip, (It has to be the tangy zip of miracle whip!)
  • 1 Tbsp Dijon Mustard
  • 1 Tbsp brown sugar
  • 2 cups cooked white or brown rice, (I use minute/instant rice)
  • 6-7 oz frozen broccoli florets, thawed/drained of any liquid (half of a 12-14oz bag)
  • 2 cups shredded/cubed turkey
  • ½ cup shredded cheese, (I used cheddar)
  • cup Progresso Italian bread crumbs
  • 1 Tbsp butter, melted

Instructions
 

  • Heat oven to 350˚F. Spray a 9×13-inch rectangular baking dish with pan spray & place thawed broccoli florets into the bottom of the dish. You can take kitchen shears to trim any large pieces.
  • Sprinkle cubed turkey on top of the broccoli. If you are cooking your instant rice, now is a good time to throw it in the microwave.
  • In a saucepan, melt butter over medium heat. Add flour & bouillon till it comes together. Gradually whisk in milk, cooking & stirring constantly until mixture boils & thickens (will happen suddenly when it does.)
  • Stir in miracle whip, mustard, brown sugar & remove from heat. Add cooked rice & pour over turkey/broccoli mixture in the dish. Top with shredded cheese.
  • Mix bread crumbs with 1 Tbsp melted butter, sprinkle the bread crumbs over the cheese. Bake for 30 minutes or until thoroughly heated & sauce bubbles.

  1. Is there anything else that I can use to substitute the mayo? This looks great!!

    1. You can leave it out, but it adds an extra creaminess, & the flavor of the miracle whip does help the dish, in my opinion. You could also try sour cream, but I just strongly suggest the miracle whip. Even subbing mayo isn’t my favorite for this dish. Nothing compares to the flavor of the miracle whip, with the dijon & brown sugar.
