So it is the day after Thanksgiving and your fridge is full of leftover Turkey. By now your family is tired of turkey and is saying "Hey lets order in for Pizza! Here a few suggestions to help you utilize and spice up your leftover Turkey. Your family may not even realize they are eating it!
Turkey Enchiladas
Need I say more? I wont bore you with the recipe. Just use the Turkey as you would chicken!
Buffalo "Turkey" dip
I have featured this recipe in another hub using chicken.
- two cups of Turkey's white meat (finely shredded)
- one bar of cream cheese (softened)
- one half bottle of Franks Red Hot sauce (or so)
- Couple handfulls of shredded cheddar cheese
- I package of good seasons dry mix
Mix all of the above in a sauce pan on stove. Pour into cooking dish top with more shredded cheese and cook for fifteen twenty minutes at 350. Serve with Tortilla chips!
White Christmas Chili
This is my favorite as I can throw everything in the crock pot and let simmer all day.

two cans of chicken broth

two cans of great northern beans (one can can be mushed up before adding to crock pot)
