A turkey big enough for 20. Dinner was canceled because of snow. Turkey, turkey everywhere. That is what inspired this dish.

What a great way to use some of your Thanksgiving leftovers. Crescent rolls are a delicious crust for this shepherd's pie. It adds a light, buttery flavor. The turkey is moist, and the potatoes are super creamy. We loved the addition of smoked Gouda and the flavor it adds. This easy-to-make meal will quickly become a staple way to reinvent holiday leftovers.
