Turkey Leftovers Recipes

Hi Everyone, with the holiday season be it Thanksgiving or Christmas, you might find yourself with extra turkey on hand after a feast or this situation could present itself year-round after a large turkey dinner. I have gathered several turkey recipes from Life's Little Sweets and from other bloggers to give you ideas on what to do with said turkey leftovers.

In the recipes that call for ground turkey, you can substitute the same amount of shredded or chopped turkey.

I have included a quote from each recipe post in the opening description of the recipe in the list. Check out the tasty Turkey leftover recipe ideas below:
