I don’t know about your house but here the last part of the Thanksgiving dinner to go is the turkey meat. The mashed potatoes and stuffing are long gone but we still have turkey meat. I like this recipe to use the last of it up.
I started by putting some diced potatoes in casserole with a bit of water. I microwave them on high until they are just tender, about 8 minutes.
Then I preheat a fry pan over medium high heat. I put the butter in the fry pan and heated until it was bubbly. I put the potatoes, onions and peppers in the fry pan and sauteed them until they started to get some colour, about 6 minutes.
I added the herbs and turkey. I sauteed for another 2 or 3 minutes until the turkey is heated through.
You can serve it for breakfast with fried eggs or with left over gravy for dinner.
The Verdict
This is a simple tasty way to use up the last of the turkey. Give it a try!
