Easy, very quick, and a tasty way to use up leftover Thanksgiving turkey. Works with chicken, too. If you are feeling adventurous, consider adding a can of pineapple chunks or a cup of seedless grapes to the casserole. If you are watching your diet, by all means feel free to substitute cracker or cereal crumbs for the crushed potato chips, and use low-fat mayonnaise.
