Thanksgiving is a holiday known for gorging….but what if you don’t this year?! What if you turn your leftovers into future meals? That’s how this best Thanksgiving leftover recipes post was inspired.
I wanted to be prepared, come the day after Thanksgiving, to turn the leftovers into creative future meals I can freeze. Since I’m a single girl, I usually have tons of leftovers that our family of 3 can’t eat fast enough. Why not make meals I can freeze for later on?!
To round out the collection for you, this list is not JUST freezer meals, it’s all meals you can eat now as well. I wanted you to have options and different ways to use leftovers! 🙂
