Default Worst leftover Thanksgiving food recipe?

I saw this one year on the cookiing channel. I believe it was Rachel Ray
who did it, but I could be wrong. It was a pizza made with a Boboli crust.
It was then spread with cranberry sauce and had leftover turkey on it.
Naaaasty!

Sounds a tad "Sandra Lee-like" to me. And I agree.. sounds dreadful.

I don't like Boboli to begin with.... and nothing could improve it
IMO.

That was my first experience with it. And since I saw it being used on a
cooking show, I assumed it must be good.

NEVER assume anything you see on a cooking show is good. You can probably
cook better than they can!

The big secret of the cooking shows is that you can't smell or taste
anything over the TV.

You might be right! I have tried some of Julia Child's recipes and they
were good. But the thing is, they sounded good from the start. Sometimes I
will look at a recipe, like all of the ingredients, but not like the
finished dish. But in the case of the turkey pizza, it just sounded bad
right from the start. I should have trusted my instincts.

Agreed. Frankly, turkey pizza sounds revolting! :-)

Actually I saw it. Ground turkey. I would NEVER make anything with ground
turkey. Okay... So I once tried to make those meatballs. Blecccccccch!
No more ground turkey will ever dampen this door ever!

Heh... I don't watch reality TV. There's nothing "real" about it. If I
want reality I sit on my patio and watch the birds at my feeders. I don't
need a nature channel to see nature. Don't need a TV chef to show me my
kitchen, either

That was an early FoodTV show I enjoyed. All of us on RFC watched Kay's
Aunt Irene do the brisket! Wasn't another foodie from RFC highlighted
there also? It was full of charming folks (and perhaps a scary one or
two as you saw) but it was well executed.

My theory is that making leftovers into something else simply extends the
pain and definitely worsens it. With a couple of hot turkey sandwich
dinners (leftover mashed potatoes, turkey, dressing and whatever), the
leftovers are soon gone.

I didn't see it, but Shepherd's Pie isn't made with turkey. It's made with
lamb... or mutton. "Cottage Pie" can be made with anything you like, from
ground beef to minced turkey leftovers.

What did Dimitri prepare?? I forget..?
Another show that was fun to watch (for the potential embarrassment
alone?) was the one where they knocked on someones door and the host and
a chef or two prepared dinner using whatever they found in the house. I
never saw them find nothing to use...but it was fun to see what people
had when they weren't expecting witnesses!

Amen on that. About the only thing I would change for leftovers would be
to not use leftover brown gravy. Make up a nice bechamel sauce and use
that instead. And I'm not talking about doing turkey ala king either!

Exactly, Janet! Well, I had 4 cups of (whatever) to use up,
let me turn it into 8 cups of (whatever) flavored food ... it's
getting worse! (laugh)

Especially with the original hosts, they eventually got new, highly
annoying hosts, but I still really liked that show.

And seeing Dimitri and his family, of course.

That's the point. . .her (Shepherd's Pie) was made with ground turkey,
covered with mashed sweet potatoes, covered with tons of cheddar cheese. To
quote her -- Yum-o! ;o[

M-m-m-m, yummy! Accept no invitations to someone's house for a week to 10
days after Thanksgiving if they are leftover creative. }

Don't overlook the pleasure of a toasted turkey and tomato sandwhich with
mayo. The main reason to cook a turkey is so I can eat these from the
leftovers AFAIK.

Turkey, tomato and mayo sandwiches are the best reason for
roasting a turkey. I took my free turkey out of the freezer
this morning, one day soon I'll be roasting away ... breast side
down, maybe.

Stroganoff, and it looked delicious.
I believe he's posted the recipe here.

Mostly, I agree, but I *love* making hash out of leftover meat
(turkey, beef, whatever) and potatoes/onions/peppers.

slate had an article on the subject wednesday:

Let Leftovers Be Leftovers

That turkey samosa won't bring your Thanksgiving dinner back to life.
