Bakin’ With The King and Turkey Leftovers!

Standard

Turkey Leftovers?  Yeah – why not?  

 

What to do with all that turkey? Well here’s a really NICE (and different) way to use some of it!   I found this recipe and we tried it here in the Castle and it had a FIVE out of FIVE STAR RATING!   I think if WE liked it, maybe YOU would too??????    Nice and cool and refreshing and a great combination of the tastes some of us experienced with our Thanksgiving dinners but in a whole different way than the usual casserole most of us come up with.

 

Apple Cranberry Turkey Salad

INGREDIENTS:

  • 3 cups cooked shredded turkey
  • 3/4 cup chopped pecans
  • 2 celery stalks, diced
  • 1 cup dried cranberries
  • 1 cup diced apple chunks
  • 1/2 cup plain greek yogurt
  • 1/2 cup mayonnaise
     
  • 1/2 cup fresh finely diced parsley
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • Dinner rolls

****I know this recipe has no bacon in it – but quite honestly – it just might be an interesting little ZIP to crumble up a few slices of cooked bacon in the mix!

DIRECTIONS:

  1. Combine everything together in a large bowl. Stir until mixed thoroughly.
  2. Refrigerate for a few hours so the flavors have time to blend.
  3. Serve the salad on the dinner rolls. Keep refrigerated.

No doubt about it!

In the coming weeks as we approach Christmas – I’ll be sharing some Christmas recipes most of which will have bacon in them – after all, the King of Bacon should try and feature bacon – am I right?

See you next week Loyal Subjects!
