Roast turkey is a great family favourite, especially at Thanksgiving and Christmas. But after the feast, comes the question – how to use the leftovers? Here are five ways to make the most of your festive bird.

Add other ingredients, such as:

salad leaves like lettuce or spinach

sliced avocado

cherry tomatoes or thinly sliced beetroot

wafer-thin cooked ham

crumbled crispy bacon

sliced hard-boiled egg

soft cheeses, like Brie or Camembert

Give it flavour with mustard, cranberry sauce, leftover turkey stuffing, pickles, mayonnaise, sliced gherkins, or radishes.

Toss with toasted almonds, thin slices of fresh mango and soft salad leaves. Dress with a light vinaigrette.

Stir shredded turkey breast meat through cooled cooked thin rice noodles. Add shredded lettuce, matchstick slices of carrot and cucumber, and dress with a well-blended mixture of 2 parts light soy sauce to 1 part sweet

chilli sauce.

Leftover turkey soup recipes

Add diced turkey to a basic vegetable soup recipe. Try it with celery and apple, in a chowder with sweetcorn, or as part of a spicy oriental soup, with noodles and shredded leaves.
