stuffed taters ala tammy

Recipe by

My version of stuffed potatoes. This recipe calls for using ground turkey, which I use my leftover remnants of Thanksgiving turkey for. But, you can use ground beef, which I've used in the past, and also shredded chicken, which I've also used. There is a restaurant close by that does something similar except they use shrimp with and etoufee over the potatoes.
