One of the best things about Thanksgiving Dinner every year is the fact that there WILL be leftovers! Yes, you slaved 8 hours on making dinner but you get to eat that dinner for days…wait….you get to eat that dinner for days? Ok, so as yummy as leftover turkey, stuffing and cranberries are if you are eating them for a week they can still get old. Here are some fabulous new ways to use up that turkey and make you crave your Thanksgiving leftovers even a week later!
Stuffed Sandwich rolls: These look soooooooooo good! Maybe it’s just the color from the cranberries but these have me craving leftovers already.
The Ultimate Thanksgiving Leftover Muffins: This is like the best spin I’ve seen on the hot turkey sandwich ever! They’re kind of like Turkey dinner Bombs made in your muffin tin. Instead of putting dinner next to the roll you put it IN the roll. Genius, right?
Whipped Cranberry Butter: What a excellent use for leftover cranberries! Cranberry butter smeared into hot toasted English muffins? YES PLEASE!
Leftover Turkey and Stuffing Enchiladas: This unique enchilada recipe is kind of like a southwest meets Thanksgiving smash up of goodness topped with gravy instead of enchilada sauce. I’m going to go out on a limb and say that adding cheese to the top won’t hurt the recipe at all…
Cheesy Leftover Mashed Potato Pancakes: These divine little bites of heaven are probably fabulous with a side of eggs. Like the fanciest breakfast hash brown patty idea ever!
Stuffing Stuffed Mushrooms: On the fancier side of things we have stuffing-stuffed mushrooms. What a fabulous little appetizer to take with you for Sunday tailgating! You’ll already have the stuffing made; all you need to do is stuff and roast the mushrooms. YUMMY!
The Ultimate Thanksgiving Leftover Grilled Cheese: And FINALLY, what are Thanksgiving leftovers without a grilled cheese sandwich idea? This one adds leftover cranberries for sweetness and pepper jack cheese for a little kick. Check out the sweet heat on this baby!
