LEFTOVERS - WHAT TO DO
Permalink  
 


 

 

You’ve finished Thanksgiving Dinner,

 

and are ready for a nap.  Put your

 

leftovers in containers and store in

 

the refrigerator for a couple of days.

 

Then use to make:

 

 

 

 GOLDEN TURKEY/CHICKEN BAKE

½C corn flake crumbs  2T butter, melted 

3C chopped cooked turkey/chicken  1½C 

thinly sliced celery  1C cheddar cheese,

shredded  ¾C salad dressing (Miracle Whip

or mayo)  ¼C toasted slivered almonds  1C

chopped onion  1t lemon juice  1t salt.  Mix

crumbs w/ butter, set aside. Stir together

remaining ingreds.  Put in 10x6 glass baking

dish. Sprinkle w/ topping.  Bake at 325 for 35

min til heated through.  Travels well.

 

 

FRIDAY STUFFING/DRESSING

 

Whether you call it stuffing (cooked inside the

bird) or dressing (cooked in a casserole), chill it

overnight.  Friday Morning, take it from the fridge,

and press it together firmly, to resemble a large

hamburger patty.  Spray a griddle with Pam, heat

to medium/hot, and put the patty on the griddle. 

Leave it alone!  Don’t turn or mess with it for a

good 2-3 minutes, until it has a nice crust on the

bottom.  Carefully flip it over, and gently crack a

room-temp egg on the crust.  Put a lid over the

patty, and let it steam until the white is set, and

the yolk is still runny.  Put on a plate and season

h salt & pepper.

We have enough leftovers for maybe one meal. No turkey left, at all.

Not even the carcass? To make soup?

Since I went out for my meal I too have no leftovers. Funny, friend gave my dog a bowl of turkey and gravy yesterday and this morning Sonny looked at his dog food I put in his bowl and he looked at it then at me as if to say "where is the gravy"?

We have plenty of leftovers and I sent some home with my parents yesterday. SIL is coming today, so we'll have turkey sandwiches for lunch if she hasn't eaten yet. If she's eaten, we'll have it for dinner.

I am having my turkey today due to my kid's schedules! Anyway, for leftovers, i usually plate several full turkey dinner meals and freeze them. DH loves having some frozen turkey dinners. Then i make turkey salad which DD and I adore! YUM!

My favorite part of Thanksgiving is the leftover turkey sandwiches. I had one for breakfast. Toasted kaiser roll, mayo, salt & pepper, pickles tomatoes & turkey. I forgot to put a slice of cheese on it though. Oh well. I have enough for a second sandwich later.

We had a little bit of meat and the drumsticks & wings leftover so I froze them and will defrost this weekend and make soup. There was a little bit of gravy, too, which I froze and will add to the soup to give it a nice flavor.

LEXXY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (tackles with a big ol hug!!!)



G made turkey noodle soup yesterday with the bones and a lot of the leftover meat. I swear, it's better than the Thanksgiving meal. We had it for supper last night, I ate it for breakfast and brought a bowl for lunch.

we vacuum sealed some turkey and froze it and I made a turkey casserole thing with turkey, mashed potatoes, stuffing and gravy, and put the wings and carcass in my Instant Pot with some chopped up carrots and celery and made some delicious broth that I froze. basically down to just a bit of the turkey left and 2 pieces of homemade pumpkin pie Paul is feasting away on, though Liam did have a tiny piece last night with whipped cream, HE loved it~! his belt even had pie in the holes and I had to use a toothpick to clean them out LOL
