The Leftover Thanksgiving Recipes That You Deserve (2024)

Everything Thanksgiving: Get all our Thanksgiving recipes, how-to’s and more!

We can all let out a huge, collective sigh of relief because Thanksgiving dinner is behind us ― even if only by an hour or so. And if you or your guests are anything like us, they’re already hankering for some leftovers.

Now that the dishes have been washed and our families are beginning to shuffle out of our homes, we can relish in the fact that we have a fridge full of leftovers. And not just any leftovers, but Thanksgiving leftovers.

But don’t make the mistake of just heating them up in the microwave. While we can’t deny the pure joy that is a plate of leftovers, there are many amazing creations (besides sandwiches and soup) that can be made with turkey, stuffing, cranberries and gravy. We’re talking waffles, Pop Tarts and so much more. Look:
