Your favorite leftover turkey recipe

[Kathy in Cambridge]

I have some leftover turkey breast, and have had enough turkey and stuffing sandwiches this weekend. I usually make turkey soup, but I don't have the bones or dark meat.

I would love any suggestions-I'm always willing to try new recipes!

1. Turkey Tetrazzini

I just made this today from a recipe from Epicurious.com. It was great.

Ok, just kidding, but that is my favorite use for leftover turkey!

4. My favorite, too

I add some cream cheese to mine, though. I finished off our leftover turkey today! Yum.

5. Turkey chile

I made a huge pot of turkey chile with my leftovers, and it was yummy, and it didn't taste like T-giving dinner all over again.
You can add all these ingredients to taste.

Cut up your turkey meat (works with dark and/or white meat) into half-inch chunks.

Sautee some diced onions (1-2), garlic (4-6 cloves) and jalapenos (1-2) in olive oil until softened. Add chicken or turkey broth (about 6-8 cups), canned diced tomatoes (28 oz), tomato paste or crushed tomatoes, then stir in oregano, cumin and chile powder to taste (I use 1/4 cup chile powder for a very spicy chile). Boil then reduce to simmer with the turkey meat about an hour. Then add whatever canned beans you like (I use kidney beans, black beans and/or garbanzos). Simmer another 30 minutes. Salt & pepper to taste.

Top with sour cream and shredded cheese, serve with avocado slices and tortillas.
