I made a casserole that my mom used to make and I'm not sure that she had a recipe. I seem to recall that she put it together, it tasted good, and it was something she made again. I'll just call it Mom's Potato Chip Topped Turkey Casserole.
The ingredients are turkey, onions, celery, sliced water chestnuts, cheddar cheese, mayonnaise and potato chops. I tear apart the turkey, chop the onions, slice the celery, coarsely chop the water chestnuts and cube the cheese; stir in a really small amount (2 T?) of mayonnaise. Put it in a greased casserole dish and top it with crunched up chips. Bake at 350 degrees until hot (and the cheese is melted).
It is really yummy and is a little different from plain leftover turkey made into sandwiches or ate with leftover mashed potatoes and stuffing.
Our beer was tricky. Matt picked out Bière De Mars - Grand Reserve Jolly Pumpkin Artisan Ales with the help of Beer Advocate. The beer actually tasted a little like wine. It was pretty pricey so we bought one bottle (for almost $15).
It was a good pairing. We liked the beer quite a bit and it paired well with turkey.
Here was our social media post:

And Mike Canon at WCPO included us in his online story.
See you in December for Chocolate Chip Cookies and Milk Stout. It sounds like a dessert that should include ice cream. Stay tuned.
