Your best left-over turkey recipe (no soup)

I'm asking all my Zaar friends to come up with their favourite left-over turkey recipe. I already have an excellent turkey soup recipe. Thanks a bunch.

try this one

chicken or turkey a la king in toast cups

or if you have potatoes and veggies left over also you can make a shepard's type pie with left over gravey, veggies, cubed turkey and a mashed potato top sprinkled with grated cheese.

Hope this helps

Your favorite pie crust
4 cups leftover turkey
1 cup chopped onions
Leftover gravy


Make pie crust. While it is chilling saute 1 cup chopped onions until carmelized. and mix with turkey and gravy (do not heat gravy). Amount of gravy is really up to you. Cover with top crust and bake at 400 degrees for 20 minutes; reduce oven to 350 degrees and continue baking for another 20 minutes or until brown.

Serve with fruit salad and you've got a delicious meal!

Here are a few I have used!
Turkey-Pasta Salad
Day Before Casserole
The Bobby - Left over Turkey
Chicken and Ham Tetrazzini
Creamy Chicken and Rotini Casserole
Chicken Packets (OAMC) *tried turkey after one of my reviewer suggested it!
Chinese Spring Salad
*Turkey works well with the chicken ones listed. I only listed the ones I have tried. We cook Turkey several times a year so I try different things to use it up or freeze!

Hey there-Creamed Turkey is nice, Di

Here's what I do with what's leftover.

Creamy Turkey and Vegetable Potpie with Herbed Dumplings

My vote goes for Turkey Tetrazzini. This recipe by Miss Erin Clotfelter is very close to the recipe I use. Yummy!

i just made a huge pot of turkey barley soup......awesome......

Absolutely, I am most pleased with this creation of mine:
The Best Leftovers Casserole

Our entire reason for having turkey at Thanksgiving is to be able to have turkey sandwiches for a week afterward!

Ingredients needed:
Good bread, either sourdough, whole grain, or something with a vein of herbs or olives in it.
Durkey's Sandwich Dressing (a mayo/mustard sort of combination. Tangy)
Yummy big slices of turkey seasoned with salt and pepper
Fresh cranberry relish (we make our relish by grinding up a bag of cranberries 2 whole oranges including peel, and about 1/2 c sugar. No cooking. Adjust to your own taste. Marvelous!)
Green leafy lettuce

That's the basic and the most important ingredients. No alterations, except the bread.

I've haed that some people out there like to put dressing on the sandwich as well, but that just sounds silly to me. I've also tried it with some of Stonewall Kitchen's Garlic and Onion Jam substituted for half the Durkee's and that's not bad either.

Oh, a different sandwich, also yummy, I had at a bakery once:

The Granny Gobbler

Sourdough or other quality bread
Chinese hot mustard
Thin slices of unpeeled Granny Smith Apple
Nice slices of turkey

Those are the main ingredients I remember. I'm sure you could add sprouts or something if you wanted. It's really awesome!

Yay for sandwiches!

Edit to note that bread must always be toasted!

It is that time of year to be thinking turkey, so this is a good thread. Here are a few of mine.
