Left Over Turkey Ideas!

We had two turkeys for Thanksgiving. Somehow we anticipated a hoard of guest that just never seemed to show up so now we are over loaded with turkey.  We have a left over smoked turkey and a regular one. There should be an award for how many dishes you can make from a picked over turkey after Thanksgiving.Here are a few things we are doing with the remainders of ours:1. Duh - Sandwiches, that's a given.2. Turkey Pot Pie (plain)3. Turkey Noodle Casserole (smoked)4. Turkey Soup (made stock out of the 'carcass' and remaining meat that fell off the bone before throwing it away)5. Turkey Salad - like chicken salad (plain)6. Turkey Sheppard’s Pie (using also those left over mashed potatoes)So with that little list I think my family may be over loaded on turkey for a while but at least there's a variety!  I'd love to hear what you all did with your turkey extras!

I wish I had two turkeys.  At least I can look forward to another one on Christmas, but with 8 of us in the house and several guests, even a 22 lb'er doesn't last long.  Two of our favorite turkey (roast chicken) leftovers is creamed turkey on toast for breakfast.  My five-year-old will eat two plate fulls.  The other is turkey tettrazeni (and I am sure that isn't spelled right).  Just four cups of turkey makes a large batch for one meal with a hot loaf of bread and a salad with lots leftover for lunches the next day.
