Points to those who can name the movie. (it's an easy one.)

I wanted to let you in on my supreme enjoyment of homemade turkey soup....who knew that a left over turkey carcass could turn into something so good???

Mmmmm.

(What else can you do with a turkey carcass?)

I can't wait to see Christmas Story again.

It's become a tradition at our place. [Smile]

Gild it and use it as a Christmas decoration?

Posted by Narnia (Member # 1071) on :

mmm. attractive idea jeni!

Posted by jeniwren (Member # 2002) on :

Narnia, if you do it, I want to see pictures! [Smile]

Mmmm, my favorite after-thanksgiving meal is turkey-avacado ceasar salad with a light onion soup and leftover cranberry sauce.

Posted by eslaine (Member # 5433) on :

Avacado? That makes me want a turkey sandwich.

*drools*

Posted by ketchupqueen (Member # 6877) on :

It's really good. I use Brianna's asiago ceasar dressing and Marzetti's cheese and garlic croutons. *drools herself*

(Hey Erik! It's good to see you! Have you been scarce lately?)

Posted by dkw (Member # 3264) on :

So far this year I have made turkey soup, creamed turkey served over leftover stuffing, and turkey sandwiches. I still plan on turkey tetrazinni and maybe turkey/butternut squash lasagna.

I've also made potato pancakes and shepherd's pie with the leftover mashed potatoes.

Being the host for Thanksgiving dinner is a good thing. [Cool]

Posted by Bob_Scopatz (Member # 1227) on :

Hey, dkw...isn't it time for more turkey sandwiches???

Hmm????!!!!!

[Big Grin]

Yummy!

Posted by dkw (Member # 3264) on :

You'll have to cook. I'm busy petting the dog.

Posted by Bob_Scopatz (Member # 1227) on :

Okay, I think I can handle making turkey sandwiches. Where do you keep the chocolate sauce?

Posted by Intelligence3 (Member # 6944) on :

My dad makes a great post-Thanksgiving turkey soup with amazing hand-rolled whole wheat noodles. He didn't make it until the day after I left though, so I didn't get any this year. [Frown]

awww bob and dana are in the same place talking to each other on line again, how sweet.

Chocolate sauce on turkey sandwiches, someone stop him.

Posted by ketchupqueen (Member # 6877) on :

Yeah. Everyone knows it should be ketchup. [Razz]

Turkey with Chocolate Sauce. And a more instructive mole recipe.

I made some turkey stock from the left-over bones, which turned out very well, and then made some home-made cream of turkey wild rice soup the next day.

The following day I made a home-made Turkey pot pie, including french pastry for the crust.

Of course there were the obligatory turkey sandwiches, etc.

I'm all out of turkey leftovers now and that makes me very sad.

I hate turkey hash with a passion that borders on mania.

Posted by Narnia (Member # 1071) on :

Wow Scott. *pat pat*

MMMmmmmm. But Turkey pot pie? It doesn't get much better than THAT. Yumm.

Posted by Traveler (Member # 3615) on :

Yeah...pot pie is one of the ultimate comfort foods. I tried a recipe out of this book:
Ready When You Are

It was fabulous. I've enjoyed many other recipes out of this cookbook. Ie. The Tomato-Thyme Strata recipe has now become a regular breakfast event in my home.

Posted by Annie (Member # 295) on :

This year and last, I got a smoked turkey. Because of this, if we do have leftovers they're gone in two days as we take every chance available to gnaw on the delicious carcass.

Mmm.... smoked turkey. Too bad I don't have any left. [Frown]

Posted by ketchupqueen (Member # 6877) on :

There are recipes for pot pies? [Eek!]

I thought it was just one of those things you threw together with the leftover pie crust from the Thanksgiving pies, the leftover turkey, and the leftover mashed potatoes, with whatever else you felt like putting in for good measure.

Posted by Traveler (Member # 3615) on :

I think you are thinking more of Shephard's Pie.

Posted by ketchupqueen (Member # 6877) on :

No. Pot pie. Shepherd's pie is made of lamb and topped with mashed potatoes. Pot pie has two crusts.

I'm just saying it's not something I'd ever thought of using a recipe for, that's all. It's an interesting idea.
