25 Recipes to Help You Turn Your Thanksgiving Leftovers into Something New

Thanksgiving leftovers are wonderful; I don’t think anyone will deny that.  It’s nice not having to cook for a couple of days, especially after you’ve slaved away in the kitchen all week to prepare Thanksgiving dinner.  After eating the same thing for a couple of days though, everyone tends to crave something new.  Here are 25 recipes to help you turn your Thanksgiving leftovers into something more exciting.  Unfortunately, I won’t have a chance to test any of them out this year; the only leftovers in the Delawder Matthews household will be for Brenna.  Every year her Grandma is nice enough to send us home with a little bit of turkey for her to enjoy, making her the happiest kitty in the world, and making up for the fact that her Mommy and Daddy left her all alone on Thanksgiving day.
