What are your best ways to use left-over turkey?

I am not very creative so I will be looking for ideas from your post! We make turkey sandwiches - a lot! lol

LOL when I read your title my first thought was TURKEY SANDWICHES!!! because I love them and look forward to them with the left over turkey, I also use leftovers cut up in cream of Mushroom soup and serve it over rice..that's pretty good too.

Actually, I remove most of the turkey from the bones and use it in any recipe that calls for cooked chicken. There are a lot more recipes that call for cooked chiken than there are recipes that call for cooked turkey; so, I have a lot of ways to use it. I take the carcass and cook it in my largest slow cooker with plenty of water. I then remove the bones; add seasonings, vegies, and either noodles or rice to make a giant pot of turkey soup.

I like turkey better in a recipe than by itself. I find some of the meat too strong. I love pies, and this one works real well with turkey: Ingredients 1 recipe pastry for a (10 inch) double crust pie 4 tablespoons butter 1 small onion, minced 2 stalks celery, chopped 2 carrots, diced 3 tablespoons dried parsley 1 teaspoon dried oregano salt and pepper to taste 2 cubes chicken bouillon 2 cups water 3 potatoes, peeled and cubed 1 1/2 cups cooked turkey, cubed 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour 1/2 cup milk Directions Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Roll out bottom pie crust and place in the 10 inch pie pan and set aside. Place 2 tablespoons of the butter in a large skillet. Add the onion, celery, carrots, parsley, oregano, salt and pepper. Cook and stir until the vegetables are soft. Stir in the bouillon and water. Bring mixture to a boil. Stir in the potatoes, and cook until tender but still firm. In a medium saucepan, melt the remaining 2 tablespoons butter. Stir in the turkey and flour. Add the milk, and heat through. Stir the turkey mixture into the vegetable mixture, and cook until thickened. Pour mixture into the unbaked pie shell. Roll out the top crust, and place on top of filling. Flute edges, and make 4 slits in the top crust to let out steam. Bake in the preheated oven for 15 minutes. Reduce oven temperature to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) and continue baking for 20 minutes, or until crust is golden brown.

Whenever I have left over turkey I make turkey sandwiches or turkey soup. You could also cube up the meat and freeze it for later use in soups, etc. Have a great day and happy myLotting!!!

My favorite thing to do with the turkey leftovers that is once everyone has had their fill of turkey sandwiches is making turkey hash. It is the best and everyone can't wait for that day. In fact on Thanksgiving someone will definitely mention about when will we have the turkey hash. This is the recipe and its quite easy. I take off all the turkey from the bone then cut and dice Any left over roast potatoes I dice if none I peel and dice potatoes Leftover stuffing if you wish can be added too. Then cut up one onion and one green pepper. (depending on how much turkey you have leftover) Alot use one onion and green pepper if not half of each. Salt and Pepper Heat up a frying pan with a olive oil or vetegable oil Throw all of the ingredients into the pan add salt and pepper to your taste and let it cook till hot. If you used fresh potatoes cook them first till tendor then add all other ingredients. As a side dish I usually will add yams or cranberry sauce. It is to die for and I can't wait to make it again this year.

We stock up on turkey and eat it year around. I like turkey sandwiches, I like turkey ground up with other things to make a "salad". I make soups. I will take turkey and dressing and mix them together, and serve with gravy or a cream soup over it. Lots of casseroles. Most chicken casseroles make up good with turkey as well.

I always saved mine and shredded it up. We made turkey sandwiches with our some other people make casseroles.

I didn't see this message until today--the day after Thanksgiving. I did make a turkey yesterday and didn't eat much of it. My brother came over last night and brought his two cats. They ate some of the meat and I know that I will be eating on it for a while. I will probably cut the meat off the bones over the next couple of days and then make a soup with what is left. There will probably be lots of turkey sandwiches as well. I hope you had a happy Thanksgiving!!!
