How to Enjoy Leftover Turkey

Leftover turkey can be transformed into various delicious dishes, making it easy to enjoy beyond the big meal. Shred it for sandwiches, wraps, or quesadillas, or dice it to toss into soups, salads, or casseroles. It’s a perfect protein for quick stir-fries or to top a pizza. Add it to pasta, make a hearty turkey pot pie, or turn it into flavorful tacos with your favorite toppings. Pair it with fresh greens and a zesty vinaigrette for a lighter option. Get creative with spices and sauces to give it a fresh twist every time.

I’ve said it before; I’ll say it again. I enjoy Thanksgiving leftovers, especially turkey leftovers more than the actual Thanksgiving meal. I love how creative you can get with them. Plus, I love a sandwich, and turkey is so versatile in sandwiches, as you can see below.

If you cook a large hen instead of turkey, chicken works just as well in any of these recipes.
