what to do with leftovers

I started making this Thanksgiving Panini years ago with my leftovers and now it’s become as much of a tradition in our house as the turkey or the flag football game the day before! I use up all my leftovers: turkey, stuffing, gravy, and cranberry sauce to turn them into this melty delicious panini!

All you need to do is pick up a couple extra ingredients when you do your shopping for Thanksgiving and you’ll be set to make this tasty treat!

Watch the video to see how I make it, then scroll down for the recipe!

Once your sandwich is assembled cover the top piece of bread with butter and then put that side down on the hot panini press. Butter the other piece of bread (which is now facing up) and then close the press. Cook until melty and delicious!
