Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 cups hot water
  • 1/4 cup butter, cut into pieces
  • 1 (6 ounce) package chicken flavored dry stuffing mix
  •  
  • 3 tablespoons butter
  • 1/2 cup chopped celery
  • 1/2 cup chopped onion
  • 3 cups diced, cooked turkey
  • 1/2 teaspoon celery seed
  • 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
  • salt and pepper to taste

  1. Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Grease a 9x13 inch baking dish.

  4. Spread a layer of stuffing over the bottom of the prepared baking dish. Top with the turkey mixture, then spread a layer of mashed potatoes over everything. Cover with aluminum foil.
  5. Bake for 15 to 20 minutes in the preheated oven, until heated through.
