1. Here's mine:

I take a pretty good sized casserole dish, or something that's oven-proof or microwavable.
 
In it, I make layers.

Bottom layer: cut up turkey

Top layer: stuffing

Pour gravy over the whole thing; cover.

I usually nuke it, but it can also be reheated in the oven.

We love it!

2. Sandwiches & broth.

Never made turkey salad, but I do love a turkey sandwich with dressing and mayo.

8. Sounds really good, except for the Miracle Whip.

Can't stand the stuff, but love mayo!

14. I do not like the taste of Mayo

however I think Mayo would work for people that do not like Miricle Whip

3. Turkey Tortilla Soup

Onions, sweet peppers, garlic, black beans, rice, corn, the turkey meat, tomatoes, and the turkey stock are the main ingredients - spiced with chili power, cayenne, cumin and black pepper.
 
That's dinner tonight - left over from Thanksgiving!

serve with crumbled taco chips and grated cheddar

4. C-Peg that sounds good

Cbayer

Turkey salad is easy, just dice the turkey add a chopped up hard boiled egg, mayo and pickle relish that is all.

15. I don't quite have a favorite recipe yet. I have tried several good ones, but I am still looking for that just right recipe! All I know right now is that it will involve green chilies, green enchilada sauce, sour cream and cheese. Oh, and turkey!

18. don't forget the corn tortillas

Some black olives and chopped scallions on top will make it a feast.

13. Should try the green chilis

I just use cheese and regular red enchilada sauce, but a variant would be nice.

19. Yep!

Red chili overwhelms the delicate turkey, while the green chili and sour cream do not.
 
A sandwich of turkey with a little mayo and salt and pepper runs a close second. Sliced tomatoes and lettuce on it are okay, too.

12. Hot and Sour Soup

I also like Turkey Divan, Turkey Tetrazzini and Turkey Noodle Casserole. And a Thanksgiving sandwich with sliced turkey, bread stuffing and cranberry sauce.

17. Turkey Tetrazzini

I don't have a recipe, but a friend's mom used to make it. Basically, Chicken Tetrazzini only with the other white bird.

20. Turkey mole and turkey enchiladas eom.

^^^there the stupid primitives go again, making things more difficult than they need to be.

Why not just warm up the cut-up turkey, howevermuch one wants, and then dine on it, without all this other stuff?

My Mother used to take the leftover turkey, throw it into the leftover gravy with the leftover peas and warm it up and  ladle it over toast. AKA Turkey SOS. serve it with stuffing and leftover rolls.... Mmmmm Mmmmmm, It was my favorite use for the leftovers.

Well, that's what flummoxes me.

The primitives seem to think that simply by changing the appearance of a food, it'll change its taste.

Turkey's turkey, and anybody who whines about being "tired" of turkey doesn't have any problems in life, it's such a trivial whine.

The primitives make me sick, the way they whine.

Big hunks of leftover turkey, leftover oyster dressing, leftover yeast rolls, cranberry sauce.

No need to even warm it up. Better than the original dinner.

One would think that a person with 3 brand new crockpots should not need advice with what to do with leftover turkey.

Throw the bird in there with some peas and carrots,add some water and egg noodles,season with pepper or whatever and let it make soup for the next 8 hours.

 :hammer: to everyone on this thread, DUmmies included, who are throwing peas into everything.  For all I know, Pam probably puts them in her enchiladas.

Leftovers are the best just the way they are why try to do anything else

Stirring peas into otherwise good food should be at least a misdemeanor.

The primitive who starts all the "What's for dinner tonight" threads at the DUmp makes this disgusting concoction whenever she's out of ideas. 

Pearito -- soft tortilla wrapped around rice and canned peas   :puke:

Such "gourmets" they are  :whatever:

Oh my God!  Who is it, do you remember?  Sounds like something NRaleighLiberal would do.  She's always having lawn clippings and bark mulch for dinner.  In a cream sauce, on special occasions only.

That sounds disgusting and entirely flavorless.
