Frugal Tips for Thanksgiving Leftovers

Mix gravy, cubed turkey and leftover vegetables into a casserole dish. Top with refrigerator biscuits, leftover pie crust or crescent rolls (unbaked). Bake at 350 degrees until the dough is cooked and golden brown.

When making pies on Thanksgiving Day, save the extra dough or make extra to use to make pasties. Roll out discs of dough in whatever size you want and fill with meat, vegetables and leftover potatoes.

Don’t forget to use your leftover relish dish. Chop and use in salads, soups or casseroles. If you’re really sick of the vegetables, chop and freeze to use later.

Use leftover mashed potatoes to thicken soups and stews.

Make potato pancakes: Add 1 egg and 2 tablespoons flour to 2 cups mashed potatoes. Make into patties and fry in a pan with margarine.
