What to do with all your Turkey Day Leftovers?

Turkey Tetracini!!!!

I like to chop up leftover turkey and add it to the stuffing. Then make hamburger sized patties and then saute them in a little olive oil until crunchy on the outside. Then serve on toast with mayonnaise and a lot of fresh pepper and paprika...Russ

The last time I had a full turkey, I hung the mostly depleted skeleton from the tree directly adjacent to my bird feeder and the birds had a blast. There is only my ugly dog and myself at my house and we could not possibly consume all the left overs.

I'm waiting for a pix of that ugly dog.
I bet its the cutest.
No leftovers for us, its gone by Sunday.

Often maligned but, if done well, Turkey Croquettes are really tasty. pb

Turkey soup and/or turkey pot pie.
Medium sized turkey chunks in a pan or under the broiler with a slice if cheese til it melts, served on a hamburger bun.

EAT EM !!!!!!

I make all the usual: salad, soup, etc. I also make Kentucky Hot Browns. Got the recipe while living in KY. from Shakertown near Harrodsburg. It's real comfort food!

I beg and bribe guests to take the leftover turkey home.

If they do not want to take the leftovers, I get into the car, and drive. I find a nice family of cats, who did not have luxury of enjoying their own Thanksgiving, and I set the table, for them.

On behalf of the cats who benefit from your generosity, I thank you. I'll be sharing some of our leftovers with the former strays, ferals, and shelter cats who live with us as well.

I second Cajun King's post from last year. Turkey Sausage Gumbo is the way to go. Gumbo of any sort is a beautiful thing and a great way to use leftovers.

Turkey salad, turkey sandwiches, and tomorrow night it's turkey enchiladas. Have an abundance of green enchilada sauce my mom keeps buying when I ask for red (lol), so I have to do something with it before I move to Seattle this month.

Love turkey (every so often) but Thank God the leftovers are done and gone!!!!!!!!
