Thanksgiving Leftovers

What a great time of year! A time to give thanks for all we have, and in many ways to give thanks for what we don't have.

It's time to start thinking about what to do with all those Thanksgiving Day leftovers. Just a few helpful tips:

1) Lay out your crescent rolls (2 pkgs) in your Hospitality Set. Fill with whatever leftovers you'd like: turkey, stuffing, vegetables, gravy etc. Flip the tails of the rolls over the top to form the braid. Bake at 350 for approx. 25 minutes.

2) Lay out chopped turkey in bottom of 9 x 13 pan. Pour gravy, cream of "something" soup, or can of Rotel over the top. Top with grated cheese of choice. Cover with stuffing. Bake at 350 for approx. 20 minutes.

3) No stuffing left? Follow above directions only top mixture with biscuits or prepared box of cornbread and bake as directed on biscuit/cornbread packaging.

4) For leftover cranberry sauce: mix with 8 oz softened cream cheese and 1 container Cool Whip. Add marshmallows and chopped pecans if desired. Refrigerate or freeze until ready to serve.

5) Leftover bread, muffins or rolls? Make bread pudding! Individual servings: Beat together 1/2 cup milk and 1 egg in small cereal size stoneware bowl. Add bread broken into bite-size pieces (equal to about 2 slices of sandwich bread). Make sure bread is pushed down into milk/egg mixture. Microwave on High for 3 minutes. Add sugar, brown sugar, cinnamon, raisins, etc. to taste. Top with fresh fruit if desired.
