The Dilemma of Thanksgiving Leftovers

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at USFSP chapter.

Is your fridge still stuffed with Thanksgiving leftovers? Are you sick of eating turkey for breakfast, lunch and dinner? If you answered yes to either of the questions then you need to keep reading.

5 Creative ways to revamp your Thanksgiving leftovers.

 

Burrito

Grab a tortilla from your pantry.

Spread stuffing in the middle of the tortilla, then slather it in cranberry sauce and gravy. Add your turkey and fold the bottom and top of the tortilla inwards so it prevents the goodies from falling out. Next, wrap the sides of the tortilla and wrap the bottom half in aluminum foil.

 

Sandwhich

For any of you Friends fanatics out there, Ross would call this a Moist Maker. Take two bread slices and butter them up. Layer this with gravy, turkey, leftover veggies, stuffing, cranberry sauce, and some mashed potatoes. If you have a panini press, use it, this only makes it better!

Fried stuffing balls

Preheat oil in a frying pan.

Make little balls out of your leftover stuffing. Mix 2 eggs and 2 teaspoons of milk in a bowl. Coat the balls in the egg wash and then roll in breadcrumbs. Place them in the oil, turning them after two minutes. After four minutes total, pull the balls out and set them on a paper towel. Serve with leftover cranberry sauce.

Veggie frittata

Whisk two eggs in a bowl. Add any leftover veggies you may have into the bowl along with a pinch of salt and pepper. Mix it all up and pour it into a sprayed frying pan. Cook the egg through and enjoy!
