Editor's Pick: My Favorite Thanksgiving Leftovers Recipes
Have way too much food left over from Thanksgiving? While eating plain leftovers is always yummy, here are a few recipes to help you spice 'em up.
As much as I love Thanksgiving dishes, if you're like me, there's only so many days in a row you can eat turkey, mashed potatoes and cranberry sauce.
However, with these favorite leftovers recipes, I look forward to eating it every day, in a different way, until those leftovers are long gone.
I hope you like these recipes as much as I do.
Happy Thanksgiving! And thanks so much for being a Patch reader. We appreciate you!
