When Thanksgiving ends, the last thing you want to do is throw any leftover turkey out. Why not try using some of the tender bits of turkey for spicy turkey chilli or taco-stuffed sweet potatoes? You can even make a turkey Ragú sauce for your spaghetti.
Those larger slices and cubes of turkey are also perfect for turkey tetrazzini and turkey pot pie.
Your turkey will only last around 3 to 4 days in your fridge, so get cooking!
This recipe may require some time, but trust us when we say it’s worth it! Don’t let any part of the turkey go to waste. Try your hand at making homemade turkey broth by using the leftover bones. Break the carcass apart into smaller pieces and cover it with water. Add salt to taste and let it simmer for 1 1/2 to 2 hours or until the broth is flavourful.
