What to Do With Leftover Turkey

If you're trying to decide what to do with the turkey you have left over from yesterday, here's an excellent recipe:

Different Chicken Divan

Turkey is an easy substitute for the chicken in this recipe, which is full of great flavors like curry and garlic and french onions. I use frozen broccoli cuts instead of fresh broccoli, and it's very easy to put together. You may want to add a tablespoon or two of lemon juice to the soup mixture as well.

This next recipe uses not only turkey, but leftover mashed potatoes and dry stuffing mix:

Thanksgiving Leftover Casserole

Here's one that gives turkey a completely different spin, with diced green chiles, corn tortillas and Cheddar cheese:

Southwestern Turkey Casserole

Here's another Mexican-flavored entree, with cream cheese, chiles, jack cheese and chili beans:

Four Seasons Enchiladas

And this list from FoodNetwork.com:

The only recipe I've tried of all of these is the chicken divan, but I'm hoping to have enough turkey to make some of the others as well, because they all sound delicious! If not, I'll be buying a turkey breast or a chicken to roast, since I now have some great new recipes to try.
