Leftover Turkey

I love cooking poultry. It is such an economical way of budgeting your meal plan for the week. You always end up with a least 2 meals. The main one and then you can follow up with a soup using the bones and some of the leftover meat as well as some amazing turkey salad. It works perfect for a week where you don't have much time to prep and cook. On the sunday, cook the bird. After supper, remove the meat from the bones and reserve. Throw the bones in some water with carrots, celery and onions and make a wonderful broth. Add some meat that was removed from before and your soup is set for the next day. When you want to eat it, heat it up, add some noodles and there you have it. Another recipe I always end up making is a cold salad. You can make a sandwich, wrap or simply eat it by itself.

So here is my easy turkey salad from my leftover thanksgiving turkey meat. I find that turkey has a great taste cold compared to other meats.
