There are two forms of individuals on this planet: these complete reside for Thanksgiving dinner and people who reside for the leftovers.
I at all times waffle between the 2 however I feel I’m a leftovers particular person. I simply love having meals within the fridge that may simply heated up for after I’m in these hangry moods. And after I’m within the temper to make leftovers into one thing even higher like bestovers…oh man, that’s the place I prefer to shine. Give me all of your roast turkey carcass as a result of right here I come turkey congee and turkey noodle soups! I feel everyone knows that the very best a part of Thanksgiving is leftovers, proper?
Right here’s some inspiration if you wish to come over to the bestover facet. It’s the very best facet, if I do say so myself.
Turkey Curry Udon
Should you love thick noodles and Japanese curry, that is the final word comforting leftover turkey dish: turkey, a barely spicy, barely candy curry sauce, and ALL the udon.
Brunch Banh Mi: Vietnamese Egg and Turkey Sub
Turkey and eggs go collectively, particularly once they’re all tucked right into a crispy fluffy baguette with Vietnamese pickles and cilantro.
Thanksgiving Croquettes
This is perhaps my all time favourite bestovers of all of them. They take a little bit of time, however man, are they superb! Mashed potato croquettes filled with turkey and stuffed, rolled in panko and deep-fried to a crispy crunchy shattering nugget. So good with leftover cranberry sauce.
Turkey Fried Rice
This one’s a basic: take the whole lot within the fridge and make a fried rice. So easy but so significantly better than the sum of its components
Eggs and Crispy Stuffing Muffins
Should you love stuffing, you’ll love these little stuffing truffles which might be crispy on the skin and fluffy-n-stuffing-y on the within. Prime them off with little quail eggs (or common ones) and it’s good eats.
Thanksgiving Poutine
Hello, I really like poutine and there may be nearly no higher poutine on the market than a Thanksgiving poutine with turkey and stuffing and brussels sprouts and cheese curds and turkey gravy and fries.
Turkey Pho
My favourite a part of Thanksgiving may simply be the turkey carcass as a result of you can also make issues like turkey pho. So savory and filled with noodles and taste.
Potato Topped Turkey Pot Pie
That is sort of like a turkey dinner in a single dish: creamy béchamel, turkey, carrots, peas and baked with a creamy mashed potato high. I may eat the entire pan!
