Turkey Leftovers . . .

Our turkey was pretty well demolished on Thanksgiving Day which was a compliment to my husband, the one who roasted the bird. We did have enough leftover to turn it into soup. Leftover stuffing and mashed potatoes also found their way into a dinner remake.

The stuffing was reinvented into dumplings. Combined with the turkey soup, it was sort of like eating a Thanksgiving meal, again, only with a spoon. The mashed potatoes got mixed with some cheese, eggs, seasonings, and baked into little puffs that made a nice compliment to the soup - something a bit crunchy on the side.

Creating meals out of leftovers is right in line with my enjoyment making scrap quilts. I find more it more of a challenge in both hobbies - making a creation out of odds and ends nobody thought they would want.
