Sous Chef
Thanksgiving was at my place this year and I was left with a lot of leftovers. Chief Longwind threw me a curveball when he decided to roast another turkey (we already had one I was roasting and his smoked beauty) and bring it down with him. Then he and Mom left without taking any leftovers. Our other guests took a little, but we still have a ton. We've been eating plates of leftovers, turkey sandwiches, turkey salad sanwiches. I made coconut curried turkey and turkey tetrazzini. I am just about turkey-ed out. I'll finish our traditional turkey soup tonight and freeze it. I've already frozen a bunch but my freezer will be completely full after the soup and I need to start using this frozen turkey soon. I need space in my freezer.
I'm looking for ideas to sort of re-purpose the turkey meat. Mine was roasted with a celery-onion butter under the skin, but no herbs or spices and his was done with just salt and butter, so the meat is fairly neutral flavor-wise. Anyone have any great recipes that I could put turkey in that don't taste like Thanksgiving dinner all over again? I'm looking for something that will somewhat hide the turkey flavor, because I'm getting pretty sick of it.
