Your Favorite T-Day Leftovers.

I like a good pot pie, but really, I look forward to just a plain old turkey sandwich on white bread, Hellmans mayo, a touch of salt and pepper. Sometimes I go really wild and add iceberg lettuce.

In high school my best friend would come to our house Thanksgiving evening and we would make the same sandwich with Strohmans white bread. Add some Charles chips and a cold Pepsi.

What do you look forward to as far as leftovers?

@withaK It's weird, for me Thanksgiving dinner is carb heaven. I will eat a little turkey but give me the potatoes, stuffing, gravy and baked corn. 1 serving of each and I'm good. I will say, I didn't even have dessert yesterday.

The day after, it's all about the turkey.

All of them--my dinner turned out so good that I will be eating the same things for at least a couple days--in fact.... my turkey roulade is calling my name to be made into a sammie for breakfast this a.m.

I am with you. Turkey sandwich on good white bread with Best Foods mayo is my thing.

This is year I had Maine lobster and lemon risotto. I was going to mooch a piece of turkey from neighbor across street but they had Prime Rib and Crab Cakes so no turkey for me!

I loved a good turkey sandwich on bread or toast. I’ll eat the left over asparagus, made stuffing, but I’m not a stuffing lover. Oh, and some cranberries with that sandwich. Always room for pumpkin pie. I bought a cherry pie, but really missed the pumpkin pie this year. Might have to make one this week.

Didn't do a turkey this year, but long ago used to do one and would have a kitchen sink turkey hash the day after. Throw anything savory from Thanksgiving dinner into the pot plus turkey gravy--bite-size pieces of turkey, stuffing, mashed potatoes, green beans, etc.--cooked until it's hot and the flavors are melded. Serve the sweets like cranberries on the side. But if you just want a reprise of the whole dinner, do that. I never did, so hash it was.

for the day after, i always heat up a complete plate of turkey, potatoes, stuffing and beans with gravy and sides of waldorf salad and cranberry... and then on the next few days i eat heaping turkey sandwiches with stuffing and mayo, and whatever is left of waldorf and cranberry. i can eat that for two or three days and then i am DONE.

Definitely stuffing/dressing. Always make extra just for this reason.
