  1. Heat oven to 375°F. Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish with the teaspoon butter. Mix turkey, vegetables, gravy and broth; spread in dish.

Notes

Equipment: 9x13-inch baking dish, large skillet, large mixing bowl, instant-read thermometer.
Serving size: 1/6 of the recipe.
Use properly refrigerated leftovers still within their original 3–4-day storage period; making a casserole does not restart that clock. Freeze promptly if not eating in time.
For freezing, chill the turkey filling promptly in shallow containers and freeze airtight for up to 2 months. Freeze stuffing separately. Thaw both in the refrigerator, assemble, and bake covered at 375°F for 30–40 minutes, then uncovered for 15–20 minutes, until 165°F throughout.
Refrigerate leftovers in shallow containers within 2 hours (1 hour above 90°F); use within 3–4 days. Reheat the center to 165°F.
