Did someone say Thanksgiving leftover recipes?! Now that your traditional Thanksgiving feast is over, it’s time to figure out what exactly to do with all those leftovers sitting ominously in the fridge. Don’t worry; you’re not doomed to eat endless iterations of turkey and gravy sandwiches and cold cranberry sauce (unless, of course, that’s your jam, in which case, bon appetit!). Your leftover turkey and sides are only as limited as your imagination, and we’ve rounded up some creative recipes you won’t be able to resist.
It’s time to level up your leftovers. Who knew sweet potatoes could be perfect for pancakes, hash and vegan wraps? Why not use that cranberry sauce for muffins, jam bars, and some tasty appetizers? Don’t think your turkey needs to go to waste, either—enjoy some pho, Mexican breakfast pizza or turkey pot pie soup. Don’t mind if I do!
The key to really nailing your leftover recipes is making sure they taste different than your actual Thanksgiving spread. Nobody wants to eat the same thing night after night! And, let’s be honest, after slaving over those sides in the kitchen, you probably don’t even want to look at them. This year, transform them into something new, and don’t be surprised if by this time next year, you’re ready to skip the whole holiday and go straight to leftovers szn.
Below, 13 mouth-watering Thanksgiving leftover recipes to make the final days of November the tastiest of the year. Enjoy!
