A few days after Thanksgiving and most families are probably still eating leftovers. You may be tired of the same old meals but here are 5 must have renditions of thanksgiving leftovers.

1. Classic Turkey Sandwich

Nothing beats a classic leftover turkey sandwich: toasted bread with cranberry sauce, turkey (or ham), stuffing, and with some gravy. This is a recipe that comes purely from your own imagination. However, you can also follow this recipe from the Food Network for a You can also change it up by panini. You can also change it up by making a burrito or wrap with some greens too.

2. Thanksgiving Pot Pie

I love homemade chicken pot pie, so you can bet I was more than eager to try it using thanksgiving leftovers. Personally, I make it the same way I make a chicken pot pie but add turkey and some gravy with the veggies. If you don't have enough gravy left, then you can add a bit of either cream of chicken or cream of mushroom to the mix. Detroit Free Press has a different recipe that may take more time but full of flavor.

3. Turkey and Wild Rice Soup

Although I have never tried this unique leftover interpretation from Mountain Mama Cooks, the pictures make this soup recipe look like one of the best on this list. If you don't like wild rice, then you can always simply change to brown or jasmine rice instead. You can even use orzo or quinoa depending on your preference; making this recipe very easy to make gluten free if needed.

4. Turkey Chili

For those of you who are a bit more adventurous, you may like having Turkey Chili. This is another recipe that can be changed to your preference. You can also add a special kick with some spicy peppers if you would like. Country Living has a wonderful recipe that uses pinto, kidney, and black beans. However, you can substitute one can for another if you prefer a specific kind of beans.

5. Simple Shepard's Pie

If you still have some leftover mashed potatoes, then maybe you could try this Shepard's Pie recipe from County Living. This Shepard's Pie recipe contains all the basic ingredients with added leftover turkey, ham, and mashed potatoes. You can also use leftover sweet potatoes instead, just make sure not to have too many marshmallow unless you want your pie to be on the sweeter side.
