Transform Your Thanksgiving Leftovers Into These 6 Dishes
Don’t know what to do with all of your Thanksgiving leftovers? Try one of these six healthy and hearty dishes:

Harvest Stew
Make sure your leftover gravy’s fat is skimmed away. Then, use the gravy as a base. Add leftover turkey and vegetables. Thicken your Harvest Stew by incorporating sweet potatoes. Cook to 165°F.

Turkey-Berry Wrap
Spread cranberry sauce on your leftover sliced turkey; add shredded greens and toasted pecans. Then, wrap the ingredients in whole-wheat tortillas.

Cranberry Smoothies
Blend cranberries, unsweetened frozen yogurt and orange juice.

Turkey Stock
Freeze turkey stock in small amounts. Then, thaw the turkey stock in your refrigerator. Cook couscous, pasta, rice or soup with the stock.

Crunchy Turkey Salad
Toss cubed turkey, celery, apples, light mayonnaise and shredded baby spinach together.

Stuffing Frittata
Mix stuffing with eggs and cook through, pancake-style.
