This recipe certainly lives up to it's name, but it is a delicious way to use your left over turkey the next day after your Holiday meal. I've always made this the day after a Holiday meal and my children lovingly referred to it as, "mess" and the name stuck. So easy, just mix it together and put it in the oven...MMMM MMMMM! Serve it with your left over veggies, salads, cranberry sauce and desserts. Nothing says comfort like a good, hot casserole straight from the oven. Hope you all enjoy!
