Same, though mine looked more like this but the turkey was more shredded and was served over mashed potatoes. Sometimes there would be little stuffing patties in there as well. The absolute best along with the chicken fried steak w/ gravy and mashed potatoes and the grilled cheese sandwiches. For those they used white bread on one side and wheat on the other with lots of cheddar cheese and they came out really crunchy/chewy. Also came with a cup of tomato soup.

>Make a basic gravy with roux, water (or stock made with the carcass if you're feeling sassy), better than bouillon, onion and garlic powder plus any herbs you like
>Chop or shred all the meat and add to gravy
>Serve over mashed potatoes, instant for that authentic lunch room flavor and texture

Hands down the best lunch item was the turkey gravy and mashed potatoes with a roll to sop it all up. Ours came in a paper boat.
