Left-overs Have Feelings, Too

For anyone who has seen me the day after Thanksgiving, they know the most disgusting part of the holiday is my version of a turkey sandwich.
It is epic.
Here is the rundown:
Bread. Gravy. Turkey. Gravy. Stuffing. Gravy. Fill the stuffing cracks with potatoes. Finish with gravy. Bread.
Leftovers are a gift from little tiny baby Jesus laying in the manger. ESPECIALLY Thanksgiving leftovers, because they last at least a week and no one is ever sick of stuffing. But you can get sick of turkey. But then you should just eat more stuffing. And sweet potatoes never seem to go bad.
But did you know there are meals you can make out of leftovers that aren't just disgusting, gravy slathered turkey sandwiches? ITS TRUE. Here are some of my personal favorites.

1. Shepherd's Pie: Delicious and fairly easy. This recipe is just a base, don't feel like you have to follow it exactly. Just cook up some meat and vegetables in some flour and enough broth for it to absorb, slap it in a baking dish, and put all those mashed potatoes on top. Bake that shit. With cheese.
2. Stuffing Casserole: This recipe calls for chicken, but just switch it to turkey. Or bacon. Or turkey AND bacon. Take your stuffing, add two eggs and some broth to remoisten it up, add whatever the hell else you want, slap it in the oven until it looks delicious. Once again, I suggest an addition of cheese.
3. Pot Pie: Don't make your own pie crust and just buy some of those ones at the store, because making a pie crust is too much of a commitment for leftovers. Put the pie crust in the plate. Load the effer up with all your leftovers, including gravy. Lots of gravy. Top it with the other pie crust. ADD CHEESE. Bake it until it smells good.

And then, because I know you're all lazy asshats, here's a page of just turkey sandwich recipes.
HA! THOSE ARE FANCY SANDWICHES.
Enjoy your gravy, because if you don't I'll come find it.
