Can you believe Thanksgiving is this week?! I’m getting ready with my stretchy pants super duper tough workout to burn extra calories to make room for more calories.
This year, my Mom is hosting an intimate Thanksgiving dinner for me, my sister, and my dad. It’ll be a nice small gathering with lots of delicious food – which means even more delicious leftovers! To prepare for the goodness that is the week after Thanksgiving, I perused the web and found 10 awesome ways to use said leftovers. So get your tupperware ready and make room in the fridge because you’ll be wanting to feast on these all week long.

YES! Can’t go wrong with leftovers. I’m hoping my mom will send me home with a doggy bag 😉

right?! I almost want that instead of just plain turkey on Thanksgiving! haha
I’m with ya on the stretchy pants 😉
My fave way to use the leftovers is making turkey, mayo, and salt sandwiches. I used to think that it was totally normal until other people would give me a super weird look, haha 🙂 It’s been a staple leftover in my house since I was little.

I’ve never heard of adding salt, but I don’t think it’s all that strange – just a little extra flavaaaa 🙂
