OMG. I'm speechless. A crrrrrust!

I like this idea. Do you broil the sandwich or fry it?

Very interesting.

Think the next time we have leftover stuffing will do this but will add eggs and black beans to make it a complete meal.

Thanksgiving Nachos


3 cups shredded turkey

1 tablespoon spicy poultry rub

½ teaspoon salt

1 (13-ounce) bag corn tortilla chips

3 cups Gruyere or white cheddar cheese, divided

3 cups stuffing

1½ cups leftover gravy

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

In a medium bowl, mix together the turkey, poultry rub and salt.

On a 13-by-9-inch baking sheet, layer the tortilla chips. Sprinkle 1 cup cheese over the chips. Scatter the stuffing on top and the turkey over the stuffing. Drizzle gravy over the turkey.

Finish the nachos by sprinkling the remaining 2 cups of cheese on top. It may seem like a lot of cheese, but it is not.

Bake nachos uncovered for 20 to 25 minutes.

Serves 8.

Leftover Turkey Corn Chowder


1 tablespoon butter

2 tablespoons olive oil

1 medium onion, diced

1 large carrot, chopped into cubes

½ cup chopped celery

½ jalapeno, de-seeded and diced

Salt and freshly ground pepper, divided

1 can (14.75 ounces) cream-style sweet corn

1½ cups sweet corn, frozen or canned

4 cups chicken or turkey broth

3 cups whole milk

1 tablespoon lemon juice

Heat butter and olive oil in a Dutch oven over medium-high heat.

Add onions, carrots, celery and jalapeno, and saute. After 3 minutes, add salt, pepper and allspice or pumpkin spice. Cook for 3 minutes, stirring occasionally.

Stir in the turkey and potatoes. Cook for 3 minutes.

Add cream-style corn, sweet corn, broth and milk; bring mixture to a boil over high heat.
