    I tried this last night with the left over turkey, it tasted nice but just a little disappointed because it wasn't very creamy, maybe I used too much stock becasue I had to reduce the qualities for 2 servings instead of 4. Would definately do again, only once a year though because of the calories especially after christmas dinner

    I made this last year using left over turkey and will be making it again this year. I agree with the comment above, so the second time I made it I increased the stock and cream slightly and it was much better.
