We enjoy traditions like running turkey trots, relaxing, preparing delicious recipes, and many times, facing a mountain of leftovers. The problem is that there are only so many Thanksgiving leftover servings we can eat on their own before we get sick of turkey, stuffing, yams, and the other usual suspects. While I personally love just re-heating the same turkey leftovers, I thought it would be fun to give everyone a few creative ideas for other ways to enjoy your Thanksgiving leftovers.\n<h2>Creative Thanksgiving Leftover Ideas<\/h2>\n<h3 style=\"color: #333333;\">1. MEXICAN FARE<\/h3>\nIf you&#8217;re a fan of Mexican food, might I suggest turkey nachos or turkey fajitas? Prep a pan of corn tortilla chips with 1-2 cups of shredded leftover turkey. Sprinkle with cheese, tomatoes, black beans, and salsa for a delightful bite. Next, you can make turkey fajitas by mixing turkey slices with fajita seasoning and saut\u00e9ing them with onions and peppers in a skillet. Add guacamole, salsa, sour cream, and any other fixings you desire, and wrap it up in a warm tortilla. Alternatively, you can sub beans and rice for the tortilla.\n<h3>2. Thanksgiving Pizza<\/h3>\nAnother fun idea is to make a Thanksgiving pizza! Yes, that&#8217;s actually a thing\u2014and high on my list of fantastic leftover turkey ideas. Take store-bought pizza dough and spread it with leftover yams or regular mashed potatoes. Then add shredded slices of turkey and top with leftover Brussels sprouts, broccoli, and\/or green beans. Finally, add some grated cheddar cheese and bake the pizza at 475 degrees Fahrenheit for 8-10 minutes. For an extra kick, add a few dollops of cranberry sauce!\n<h3>3. Turkey Meatballs + Pasta<\/h3>\nA turkey pasta dish could also work well if you want to add your leftovers to noodles. You can follow this easy <a href=\"https:\/\/www.snackinginsneakers.com\/leftover-turkey-mushroom-meatballs\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">turkey meatball recipe<\/a> from a fellow dietitian for a crafty way to lessen your leftover turkey load.\n\n<img data-dominant-color=\"7c6042\" data-has-transparency=\"false\" style=\"--dominant-color: #7c6042;\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-16652 aligncenter not-transparent\" src=\"https:\/\/www.humnutrition.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/Turkey-Chili-Thanksgiving-Leftovers-The-Wellnest-by-HUM-Nutrition-770x513.jpg\" alt=\"Turkey chili garnished with fresh radishes, green onions and cheddar cheese\" width=\"770\" height=\"513\">\n<h3>4. Turkey Chili or Soup<\/h3>\nThere are infinite ways to turn turkey leftovers into a hearty chili or soup. To cook up a simple pot, use tomato sauce or broth, a can of beans, and leftover veggies.\n<h3>5. Turkey-Topped Sweet Potatoes<\/h3>\nFill up baked sweet potatoes with leftover turkey and stuffing. If desired, spread cranberry sauce on them.\n<h3>6. Roasted Turkey Sandwich<\/h3>\nWhole grain bread, honey mustard, lettuce, a little cranberry sauce, avocado, and turkey can make a delicious, hearty sandwich for a quick snack or lunch.\n<h3>7. Simple Salad<\/h3>\nMixed greens, avocado, tomato, cucumbers, leftover roasted vegetables, and a dressing of your choice can make a filling salad by adding leftover turkey to it.\n<h3>8. Thanksgiving Breakfast<\/h3>\nHow about Thanksgiving for <a href=\"https:\/\/www.humnutrition.com\/blog\/low-fodmap-breakfast-recipes\/\">breakfast<\/a> with leftover turkey, potatoes, and stuffing hash with eggs and cheese? You can also whip up a Thanksgiving breakfast sandwich. How delicious does turkey and cranberry sauce between two waffles sound?\n<h2>Vegetarian Thanksgiving Leftovers<\/h2>\nCooking a vegetarian or <a href=\"https:\/\/www.humnutrition.com\/blog\/vegan-thanksgiving-recipes\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">vegan Thanksgiving<\/a>? Then look no further than these alternative leftover varieties.\n\n<img data-dominant-color=\"b68869\" data-has-transparency=\"false\" style=\"--dominant-color: #b68869;\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-16654 size-medium aligncenter not-transparent\" src=\"https:\/\/www.humnutrition.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/Stuffed-Peppers-The-Wellnest-by-HUM-Nutrition-770x622.jpg\" alt=\"Vegetarian roasted stuffed peppers for vegetarian Thanksgiving leftovers\" width=\"770\" height=\"622\">\n<h3>9. Stuffed Peppers<\/h3>\nHave lots of leftover stuffing? I suggest baking it inside halves of bell peppers for a nutrient-dense snack.\n<h3>10. Sweet Potato Pancakes or Waffles<\/h3>\nTo make sweet potato pancakes, add two eggs to a cup of leftover sweet potato casserole. If you have a waffle maker, you can use this same mixture to make sweet potato waffles. Top with leftover cranberry sauce as syrup for a sweet treat.\n<h3>11. Grilled Cheese + Cranberry<\/h3>\nAfter cooking up grilled cheese, top with cranberry sauce to add a sweet tang to a savory sandwich.\n<h2>Final Tips for Thanksgiving Leftovers<\/h2>\nDepending on how much leftover food you have, you can freeze items like turkey or mashed potatoes cooked in butter and cream. You can even freeze pumpkin pie to save for later! However, I&#8217;d thaw and enjoy these frozen leftovers within three months.\n\nLastly, I suggest taking HUM&#8217;s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.humnutrition.com\/product\/23\/flatter-me\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Flatter Me<\/a>\u2014our <a href=\"https:\/\/www.humnutrition.com\/blog\/best-digestive-enzymes\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">digestive enzyme supplement<\/a> that helps prevent indigestion and bloating\u2014with your Thanksgiving meal and leftovers.
