This is perhaps the most delicious use of leftover turkey, it is time for soup to take a back seat!
2 Tablespoons olive oil
1 cup finely diced onion
1 cup finely diced celery
1/2 cup finely diced carrot
1 garlic clove, minced
1 Tablespoon finely chopped fresh sage
2 teaspoons chopped fresh thyme
1 cup dried cranberries
1/4 cup dry vermouth or water
5 large eggs
3 cups 2% milk
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt
Big pinch of black pepper
8 cups day old bread cut into 1 inch cubes (white, whole wheat or a mix)
3 cups cooked turkey, cut into 1/2 inch cubes
2 1/2 cups grated Swiss cheese, divided
Preheat the oven to 350F. Grease a 9 inch springform pan and place on a baking sheet.
Heat the oil in a fry pan over medium heat, add the onions, celery and carrot and sauté for 5 minutes or until the onion is translucent. Add the garlic and herbs and sauté 1 minute more.

While the vegetables are cooling whisk the eggs in a very large bowl, then whisk in the milk, mustard, salt and pepper. Add the bread cubes and toss to coat and let the bread soak for 15 minutes, stirring a few times.
