Don’t worry if you don’t have all the ingredients, just use what you have (not the Thanksgiving macarons tho). Our advice is to make this wrap as crunchy as you can, kids and adults alike will love it!

If You’re Looking For Something Lighter

If you’re all about fitness or simply want something a little bit lighter after your holiday celebration, here’s your solution: Thanksgiving Leftover Salad!

Turn your bread into croutons, and your cranberry sauce will become a yummy vinaigrette, add in some of that turkey, and any veggie left around shall be included as well. Salads are all about being creative, we’ve included one of our favorite recipes here, but feel free to put in anything and everything you’ve got lying around.

Turkey Casserole

After Thanksgiving, we’re usually left with more turkey than we know what to do with. Yeah, some wraps and sandwiches might help, but none of these two can hold up too much turkey.

Enter Turkey Casserole! The perfect way to put all that turkey in one place. Casseroles are a great way to use up all the turkey and any leftover veggies as well. The real magic of this recipe relies on the buttery crispy crumb, make sure that it’s crunchily delicious and everything else will fall into place on its own.
