Everyone is preparing their menus for Thanksgiving and planning out how they can make sure everyone is good and full. But, inevitably, there are leftovers of all sorts. If you want some creative ways of how to use all that food, this is the guide for you.
Stock
Most people have a whole turkey at their Thanksgiving, and by the end of the night, you might have some left, or you might just have the bones. If you do have bones, you can easily make a stock. All you have to do is boil all the bones in water with any other vegetables and herbs you have left over until the flavor infuses, and you have homemade stock that is super healthy and delicious! You can also add in the meat if you are tired of turkey for a rich broth.
Mashed Potatoes
If you have leftover mashed potatoes but you’re growing tired of them, instead of just reheating them, turn them into mashed potato balls! Combine the potatoes in a bowl with bacon, cheese, onion, and eggs. Mix everything together and shape it into balls. Roll the balls in breadcrumbs and pan-fry them until golden brown. Serve with your favorite dipping sauce.
