  Thanksgiving dinners are nice. However, they are exhausting. You can ask any Thanksgiving cooker how the feel after the event, if you can wake him up, a poor thing curled up comatose under the dinner table, and they would answer that they feel physically and emotionally destroyed. Over this article I will try to help these heroes to rest after the humongous Thanksgiving dinner, using turkey leftovers for feed the family the next days.




   The turkey. The evil thing that took an eternity to be ready is showing his mutilated cadaver resting in Grandma’s good crystal tray. Do not be afraid, the monster can be your friend; you only have to use your imagination. First, peel of the bones, and put all the meat in little pieces on a bowl. With this meat, you can do several things:




  sandwiches: add barbecue sauce and cheddar cheese, put the mixture between two slices of rye bread and you have a nice dinner.




  enchiladas or tacos: warm up the meat spice it up with a little taco seasoning, fill tortillas with it, and you can add taco or sauce, or enchilada sauce and bake it. Use a bunch of cheese, avocado, sour cream, lettuce and tomatoes, and there you go, a Hispanic entrée.




   potpie: Fill a frosted pie pastry with the turkey, add the half content of sweet peas, carrots and cooked potatoes cans, mix with a jar of turkey gravy and bake it for twenty minutes. Kids love this.




   chili cornbread: prepared a package of cornbread, and pour the mixture over the turkey meat, mixed with a can of chili. Bake it until the cornbread is ready.




   Turkey Alfredo pasta: very simple recipe, cook the pasta, (whichever you like), warm up the turkey with a jar of Alfredo sauce, and mix it up.




   Turkey Sheppard pie: cook mashed potatoes; mix them with the turkey, a can of corn, and a can of seasoned tomato sauce. Pour grated cheddar cheese over the mixture and bake it until the cheese melts.
