TURKEY HASH WITH MASHED POTATO CRUST
Serves 4-6

Turkey Hash with Mashed Potato Crust
4 Tbsp. butter, plus enough to coat dish
½ large onion, diced
2 carrots, diced small
2 stalks celery, diced small
4 Tbsp. fresh parsley, finely chopped
¼ tsp. kosher salt
¼ tsp. freshly ground black pepper
2 ½ - 3 C. shredded leftover turkey
½ C.leftover gravy (add heavy cream or chicken broth to extend, if needed)
½ - 1 cup chicken stock
2 cups leftover mashed potatoes

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Heat a large skillet over medium heat, melt 1 tbsp of the butter, and add the onion, carrots, and celery. Sauté until the onion is just translucent and the carrots start to soften, 5 to 7 minutes. Add half the parsley and the salt and pepper and cook another minute, then add the turkey and stir to combine. Stir in the gravy, then ¼ cup of the broth. Bring to a boil, reduce heat and cook until thickened a bit, adding enough broth to make thin, stew-like sauce, about 5 minutes. Stir in the remaining parsley and transfer to 4 individual aluminum tins. Melt the remaining butter in a medium saucepan and add the mashed potatoes, stirring in the melted butter until warm. Spread the potatoes over the tins and bake until golden, about 20 minutes.

Lemon-Kissed Wilted Spinach:
1/4 C. extra-virgin olive oil
2 medium lemons
2 lbs. fresh spinach

Put olive oil in a small bowl. Grate rind of 1 lemon to get 2 teaspoons zest. Squeeze lemon to get 3 tablespoons lemon juice. Stir zest and juice into oil. Wash spinach well, discarding any tough stems. Bring 1 inch of salted water to a boil in a large pot. Add spinach, toss, and cook until just wilted. Drain off any liquid. Toss with lemon oil. Add salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste. Remove skin and pith of remaining lemon and slice thinly. Garnish spinach with lemon slices.
