Delicious Chef/Cobb Salad |
Once we have cleared the table, there's no need to go cold turkey! There are lots of ways to re-invent the bird to make it a whole new meal. You can make your own Thanksgiving t.v. dinner to have the next day. You may want to tuck some of that delicious dark meat in the freezer to keep for one of these great recipes.
My new favorite is the Turkey Chef/Cobb salad. I made a combination between a chef salad and a Cobb salad using turkey and ham with avocado. It was delicious and a very different presentation for lunch than the usual leftover turkey.
Another suggestion made to me was turkey pot pie. Using refrigerator dough, through those bits of meat and leftover veggies together with the leftover gravy to make a hearty meal. Skip the the gravy and you can fold up individual calzones or homemade hot pockets to store in the freezer for a later lunch.
One night I whipped up a turkey stroganoff using Laughing Cow cheese and mushrooms served over egg noodles. Turkey casserole is a yummy combination of rice, broccoli, and bits of turkey. I skip the cream of mushroom soup and opt for plain yogurt.
Making new meals out of the holiday leftovers will make you thankful for less trips to the grocery store! The only thing left to do now with the turkey is make a wish!

Carol, same as chicken casserole, cream of mushroom soup, rice , broccoli and add the cooked turkey. Cook for an hour or until the rice is soft and the broccoli tender.
