I'll start off with my favorite:

Asian Turkey (or roast pork) Salad

Combine WITHOUT measuring, to taste:

Diced leftover turkey or roast pork
Mayo or miracle whip
Soy sauce
Canned or fresh pineapple if desired
Diced sweet bell pepper if desired
Canned water chestnuts if desired
Bean sprouts,"
DICED CANDIED GINGER, not optional IMHO
Other veggies you may like--sugar pea pods, diced green onion, shredded carrot, hot peppers, steamed broccoli, whatever

Chill the above mixture for a couple of hours.
Crunchy chow mein noodles--stir in to each portion at serving so they stay crisp

The diced candied ginger is so awesome. If you love ginger like I do, you will inhale this salad!

We always have trouble getting rid of the left-over popcorn stuffing.

What is popcorn stuffing, you ask?

Put a cup of unpopped popcorn in your average size bird and suture that bad boy up. Cook at 325 until Tom Turkey blows its a** off and, bingo, you have popcorn stuffing.

You'll need some oven cleaner too.

LEFT OVER DELIGHT (known as Chef's Surprise at my house!)

1 small yellow onion-finely diced

1/2 lb fresh mushrooms washed & sliced

1 tbsp each red, yellow orange & or green bell peppers,finely diced (Optional if you don't like them - it's mostly for color - frozen green peas are nice too)

1 small can Campbell's Cream of Mushroom Soup

1 small can Campbell's Cream of Chicken Soup

(you can use any cream of anything soup you like - these happen to be the ones my family likes)

2 cups left over turkey, ham, or chicken - diced

1 to 1-2 Cups Sour cream and/or heavy cream - to thin the mixture and to stretch it out if unexpected company drops in

1 Knorr bouillion cube chicken, beef or vegetable (depending on the meat you are using)

In a large skillet saute onion,bell pepper in a small amount of butter (not margerine!)add mushrooms after onions start to turn translucent. Add meat of choice until it gets warm then add soups. Add bouillion cube and sour cream or heavy cream until throughly warmed & bouillion cube has been dissolved.

Serve hot over cooked pasta, rice or chinese noodles or biscuits.

I line several attractive pyrex casserole dishes with dressing (recommend bread/poultry seasoning dressing). Lay slices and pieces of leftover turkey on top. Pour gravy over top and a little down the sides (don't inundate with gravy). Cover with pieces of turkey skin, fat side down. Squish glad wrap over top and poke down into sides. Wrap whole dish with heavy-duty foil. (Don't use pyrex cover). Put casseroles in large baggies...Freeze.....Will last months in the freezer.....To use, start defrosting in the fridge the night before. Heat with pyrex dish cover on, 325 degrees for as long as it takes. Discard skin and serve....I use a hot tray when serving as the casseroles have a tendency to cool quickly.....For years now, when I have Thanksgiving, I've made these casseroles weeks before the holiday. I got sick and tired of being sick and tired by the time I sat down with little appetite to eat my own Thanksgiving dinner. Serving these casseroles gives me time to prepare all kinds of nice side dishes for the feast. No mess in the kitchen before and after the meal. The skin juices seep down into the casserole while heating. Everyone loves these casseroles. I have extra gravy frozen to put out, altho in most cases, it isn't needed. You can freeze casseroles for one, two or more people depending upon your need. Just pull one out when the lust for turkey and dressing descends upon you. Try it, you'll love it!

Panckes (no syrup) covered with turkey pieces in gravy.

Actually it is very good and a great way to serve turkey for the upteenth time.

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOh, food . . . my favorite subject! Here's a GREAT spread for those leftover turkey sandwiches.

Roast Turkey Sandwich with Cranberry Pecan Mayonnaise

1/2 cup mayonnaise
2 Tbls Dijon style mustard
1 Tbls Honey
1/4 cup sliced cranberries (I use leftover cranberry sauce from Thanksgiving - either whole cranberry or the jellied (it works the same!))
2 Tbls toasted pecans (see below)
Salt & pepper to taste

Combine mayonnaise, mustard and honey; whisk until smooth. Fold in cranberries, and pecan. Spread on bread of your choice, add turkey slices, and garnish as you like. DELICIOUS! To toast pecans, spread nuts on a paper plate. Microwave on high for 1 to 3 minutes, or until heated. Watch carefully - they burn easily.

1. Steam rice in the steamer.

2. In separate bowl combine chopped turkey, chopped celery, chopped onion, leftover mushrooms, Italian seasonings, pepper, a good sprinkle of lite soy sauce and 1/4 cup of water. Cover with plastic wrap. Microwave for 10 minutes or so.

3. Mix steamed rice with turkey/vegetable mix.

4. Serve with other leftovers of your choice.

5. Cold apple cider goes well with this.

6. Dessert is homemade pumpkin pie with pecan crust and lots of lite whipped cream. (I'm on a diet.)

7. Repeat this process each night until the left overs are all gone.
