A nice, no fuss way you can use those turkey leftovers, very colorful, have not yet tried it myself. I have no idea where it originated, but it's got all of the basics,and no cream o' crap: just turkey, eggs, cheese, pesto, garlic, rice, fresh basil, fresh tomatoes, green peppers, green onions, etc.
