"leftover turkey" news and stories

Thanksgiving may be over, but are the leftovers? Find out some easy ways to use the entire turkey.

When I first saw the name of this dish, I thought it was just turkey-flavored muffins that you would eat as part of a large meal, like dinner rolls or bread. But it's actually made with leftover turkey, gravy, and cranberry sauce and seems pretty hearty on its own (though the inventor of the dish suggests eating them with soup and fruit). Full recipe after the jump (what, you thought we were done with turkey leftover ideas?).

This is the dish that actress Rebecca Mornay serves to her family the day after Thanksgiving every year. OK, that's not true at all. I really have no idea where the name comes from. But if you're looking to do something with the leftover Turkey you're going to have this Thursday, besides the usual sandwich or soup (nothing wrong with those,of course), take a look at this recipe after the jump.

I have to admit that part of me is really interested in making this, and the other part of me is saying, "stuffing? In soup??"

But this could be a cool thing to make to use not only the turkey you might have left over from Thanksgiving but also the stuffing (make sure they're still safe to eat, of course). Obviously, I've had bread in soup before, and croutons, but this recipe calls for prepared stuffing, and that seems like it might be too much on the mushy side for me.
