Notes

Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 3-4 days or frozen for up to three months. For added flavor, consider using fresh herbs or other vegetables such as potatoes or corn. For a thicker filling, mix cornstarch with water before cooking. You can also lighten this recipe using low-fat cream of chicken soup or substitute leftover turkey.
