Tips and variations for making this turkey bomb recipe:
● If your turkey leftovers are in large pieces, shred or dice them into smaller, bite-sized portions using a cutting board.
● The cheese is your preference: cheddar, Monterey jack, Colby jack, or mozzarella are all good choices.
● If you do not have a deep dish pie plate, any glass baking dish will do. Just ensure the biscuits are snug in the pan to avoid the bombs popping open in the oven.
● You can make your own biscuits instead of using store-bought.
● You can omit the cheese if you like (making them simple turkey bombs). If you do, add some gravy.
● Instead of parsley on top, try everything: bagel seasoning, oregano, or a dash of poultry seasoning.
● Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge. Reheat in the oven or microwave.
● This recipe is made with ingredients commonly found in your local grocery store.
