ingredients
Casserole
3 cups (1/2-inch cubes) toasted bread
3 cups diced cooked boneless turkey breast
Sauce
1 cup butter
2/3 cup all-purpose flour
salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 1/2 cup half-and-half
1 1/2 cup heavy cream
1 cup whole milk
1 1/4 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
1 1/4 cup freshly shredded mild or sharp Cheddar cheese
Topping
1/2 cup chopped cooked bacon
1/2 cup diced tomato
1/2 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
directions
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Lightly butter a 9- x 12-inch casserole dish. Place bread cubes in bottom of the dish. Arrange turkey on top. Set aside and make the sauce.
In a large saucepan, melt butter over medium-low heat. Increase heat to medium, then add flour and stir to make a smooth roux. Season with salt and pepper. Continue to cook, stirring, until flour barely begins to brown, about 5 minutes.
Remove pan from heat, then slowly whisk in half-and-half. Next, slowly whisk in heavy cream. Finally, whisk in milk. Return to heat and continue to cook, stirring, until mixture bubbles, about 8 minutes.
Add cheeses, remove from heat and stir until cheese is melted and mixture is smooth. Pour over bread and turkey in dish. Sprinkle with bacon and tomato, then sprinkle with Parmesan cheese.
Bake until bubbly, about 35 minutes.

We're from Kentucky, so I thought I would give this a try. I don't know how authentic it was, but my kids gobbled it up. It was very creamy and cheesy, with the turkey and croutons providing some substance to it.
