What do you do with left over turkey?!


Question: We boil the carcass to make soup stock.
We make hot or cold sandwiches with the slices.
The little pieces with gravy or mushroom soup go in pasta.
Add celery & onions for additional flavour & texture.

I make turkey pot pie with turkey, potatoes and carrots and pre-made pie crust.

put it in the fridge then eat it afterwards when i have the munchies

i freeze it for next year im on my first turkey in four years and this is my last :( but still its a good tip for all you guys out there

make stir fry. cut it up in slices or bite size pieces and throw in a pack of frozen veggies and youre good to go. or get your own veggies, 1/2 onion, 1 green pepper, 1 cup or more of broccoli, about 1 cup mushrooms and 1 or 2 lbs turkey

Give it to Syria

LEFTOVER TURKEY
ENCHILADAS

Leftover cooked turkey (white or dark meat pieces)
1 or 2 cans cream of celery soup or cream of chicken, cream of mushroom (whichever suits your taste)
1 can diced green chilies
1 reg. size pkg. plain tortilla chips, crumbled
1 (8 oz.) pkg. Cheddar cheese, grated
1 (8 oz.) pkg. Monterey Jack cheese, grated
1 sm. onion, chopped
1 jar jalapenos (optional)

Saute onions in butter in medium skillet until golden brown. Add green chilies, soup, and 1 soup can of water. Stir and simmer until heated. Crush tortilla chips, using 1/2 of package. Spread a layer in bottom of baking dish. Evenly place a layer of cooked turkey on top of chips. Spoon a layer of 1/2 of soup mixture over chips. Add jalapenos, if desired. Sprinkle with 1/3 of both grated cheeses. Repeat chips, turkey, and soup mixture; top with grated cheese. Quantity is determined by the amount of turkey available. For larger amounts, simply continue to layer ingredients.
Conventional Oven: Bake in oven at 350 degrees until thoroughly heated and cheese is bubbly.

Microwave Oven: Heat at medium high power until thoroughly heated and cheese is bubbly.

Note: This dish is great during holidays after everyone is tired of turkey and dressing. Cooked chicken also works great. This recipe reheats well and tastes even better as a leftover!

Make turkey sandwiches.

Instead of throwing it away I put it in a bowl.And store it in the freezer.After a while when I get hungry I take it out and put in in the microwave and make it hot for 3 to 5 minutes.Then when it`s ready I eat it.

I leave it for the host to deal with.

Personally I can't stand it and don't buy it.
