What do you do with your Thanksgiving Leftovers?

I enjoyed reheating and eating as is and making sandwiches. The final thing I’ll do is make cranberry orange muffins since all I have left is homemade cranberry sauce!

Beyond just reheating, consider crafting gourmet sandwiches using turkey, cranberry sauce, and your favorite herbs to enhance the flavors.

Simply mix in the sauce with flour, sugar, baking powder, and a hint of orange zest to create a moist and flavorful muffin. Additionally, adding leftover veggies to a frittata can make for a nutritious and easy brunch.
