What To Do With Those Thanksgiving Leftovers

Thanksgiving is coming, so prepare for the food onslaught! Everyone gets excited about the turkey and all the delicious food that will be eaten on Thanksgiving. And almost better than Thanksgiving dinner, are those delightful leftovers the next day (and the days after that). Sometimes, when you store Thanksgiving food properly, it really gives time for the flavors to set in. It's usually around day three where things go south. There is still a ton of food, but everyone is kind of "over it." But you don't want to waste food. Instead, try reimagining the ingredients into other delicious dishes. Here are some suggestions. Savory Stuffing Waffles  Tasty always has excellent recipes, and this gem includes stuffing, cheese, and maple cranberry sauce. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_zPg9DfW5Sw   Hand Pies  With this recipe, Tasty found a way to easily transform leftovers into a handheld treat, perfect for someone who needs a free hand to shop with on Black Friday. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g8npe4tFNkc&feature=youtu.be Turkey Filled Omelette  Allrecipes has created a simple way to use up the leftover turkey the morning after Thanksgiving. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qO3obIe7qnI&feature=youtu.be Stuffing Omelette Similar to the recipe above, Sam The Cooking Guy has an easy way to reuse Thanksgiving ingredients for an omelette.
