What to do with all those leftovers?
I don't know about you but I had a gazillion mashed potatoes left over.....after making Jerry peel them all, I thought it best that I do something with them......
My first try was a broccoli soup and it was wonderful!
Broccoli Soup Recipe
- Saute one large chopped onion.
- Add 1 large can of Swanson's Chicken Broth
- Add 2 heads of broccoli (you don't have to chop them)
- Cook till broccoli is tender.
- Add your leftover mashed potatoes (mine had roasted garlic in them, that really added to the flavor of the soup)
- I also added some non fat half and half.
- Season to taste......you could use rosemary, thyme, I used freshly grated nutmeg and salt/pepper.
- Blend with immersion blender or put small cup fulls in the blender to blend.
- Serve with a dollop of greek yogurt or sour cream.....
Turkey pot pie
- line a pie pan with a pie crust (I used Pillsbury already made, sorry Martha, but I work full time.)
- In a large bowl, add your leftover turkey pieces (I chopped mine about 1"), frozen peas,corn, chopped carrots, left over mashed potatoes (yes I still had more), one can of cream of celery soup, a chopped onion (sauted) then season with salt/pepper. I also added fresh rosemary and dried thyme.
- Cover the top with another pie crust, brush with an egg white wash.
- Cook for 45 minutes at 350 or until hot inside...
Love,
Kim
