Thanksgiving Leftover Inspiration & a Gift Idea

 


Hello there! 

Happy TGIF. 😊 I meant to post something yesterday and the day got away from me. The time is going so fast and with Thanksgiving rapidly approaching I thought some unique leftover ideas might be fun. I love making the epic turkey sandwiches with the works on them. And I use the turkey carcass and make stock and turkey noodle soup. I think those are fairly common. 


But what about something different? I was looking at the Relish insert in my local newspaper - it has cool recipe ideas. And it had this one for making a thanksgiving ring that would be a more unique version of a sandwich:



I love the idea of putting the warm dish of gravy in the middle of the ring. Cut into pieces and dig in! 😋 




And last year I shared thanksgiving tortilla pizzas I made with the leftovers. They were actually really good. And very easy. You can find exactly how I made them in this HHM post from last year...just click here.









Continuing with the "time sure flies" theme, I thought it might be fun to share a gift idea too. Christmas is practically around the corner and frankly I have no idea how that happened. Lol 

If you have anyone in your life that likes to entertain - they might love these neat charcuterie idea cards. I follow a gal on instagram that specializes in charcuterie entertaining and she created this box set of cards. They are so neat because they include the shopping list on the back...so you could just take the card with you to the grocery store. And they give tips and instructions for how to make certain things. And there isn't just meat and cheese kinds of boards. There are breakfast boards, snack ones, holidays, meal ideas etc.  I'll let some of them speak for themselves here:























































Aren't they fun? I'm actually giving a couple of these as gifts. Maybe along with a nice charcuterie board, some wine or neat crackers, nice kitchen towel, or kitchen tool. 🎁 



This is what the front of the box looks like and Meg Quinn is the creator. You can find her on instagram too under @Ainttooproudtomeg


I hope you have a wonderful weekend Friends. xo

  3. What a fun gift idea! The Thanksgiving ring reminds me of those Pampered Chef taco rings that were really popular a few (probably more than a few, lol) years back. Would be a fun after the holiday get together meal, I think. Hope you are having a great weekend.

  4. Love your Thanksgiving ring - hope you have a lovely Thanksgiving 2021. Oh those cards are so great! I am not good at doing boards, and have been known to go shopping with photos in my phone I have saved from IG. These instructions would be so helpful. Have a great week Carrie. xx
