Thanksgiving Casserole

I saw this on "Good Things Utah" and it is fantastic!! It isn't the healthiest, but you really can't help but go back for seconds. We made it once substituting pecans for the pine nuts, but the pine nuts were better. So Good!!

I halved the recipe for our family and went a bit lighter on the salt (garlic and celery salts too).

Garlic Mashed Potatoes:
8 Large Potato’s – Peeled
1T Garlic Salt
16oz Sour Cream
¾T Salt
8oz Cream Cheese

Preparation:
Boil and drain potatoes. Add remaining ingredients to potatoes and mash together. Place mashed
potato mixture in 9x13 baking dish and set aside.

Ground Turkey Stuffing Ingredients:
2 C Ground Turkey
1 t Onion Salt
¾ t Poultry Seasoning
½ t Dried, Crushed Sage
1 Lg Box Mrs. Cubbison’s Herb Seasoned Bread Cubes
¼ t Pepper
1 C Pine Nuts
½ t Salt
1 ½ C Craisins
2 C Chicken Stock
¾ C Butter
10.5 oz Can Cream of Chicken Soup
½ t Celery Salt

Preparation:
Season ground turkey with ¾ t poultry seasoning and brown. In large mixing bowl place bread
cubes, pine nuts, craisins and browned turkey. Melt butter. To melted butter add celery salt, onion salt, sage, pepper, salt, chicken stock and cream of chicken soup, stir together. Pour liquid mixture over bread cube mixture and gently fold together. Pour stuffing over the top of the garlic mashed potatoes, cover with foil and bake for 30 minutes on 350 degrees. After 30 minutes, remove foil and continue baking for 15 minutes to allow stuffing to brown.
Remove from oven and enjoy!
(Serves 10-12 people)
