leftover recipes



this time of season we are blessed to have so many leftovers from the holidays. turkey, stuffing, corn, gravy, and potatoes are just a few of the items we had left in the fridge after thanksgiving. i think coming up with meals out of the leftovers is funner than eating it the first time around. here are a few things we came up with.

1. turkey enchiladas. i think this one is pretty common. and it was so easy. mix together shredded turkey, enchilada sauce, shredded cheese and corn in a bowl. then start wrapping it in tortillas. after placing in a casserole dish i make up another mixture of enchilada sauce, cheese and onions and pour over the top. bake and enjoy!!!

2. "shepards pie". i know there are alot of versions of shepards pie. we had alot of leftover mashed potatoes this year. brown ground turkey and mix it with cream of mushroom and green beans. top with mashed potatoes then shredded cheese. bake! this was a huge hit here.

3. stuffing is a great topping for casseroles too. we made a mixture of shredded turkey and cream of mushroom and topped with stuffing and baked. dont forget the cheese. cheese makes everything lovely :)

im looking foward to christmas and what i can come up with then.
