This recipe has grown from the time my Mom gave it to me (I believe it was originally from Lipton or Campbell's.) I have tweaked it and also have the mushroom haters (daughter-in-law & one grandson) who I have to work around. It is a phenomenal way to use left over turkey and it freezes perfectly!!
