Alot of people have turkey for their Christmas dinner. I found some great recipes for the extra meat.
1. Turkey and corn enchiladas- Combine 2 cups shredded roast turkey, 1 cup corn, 1 cup Mexican cheese. Season with salt/pepper. Roll into a small flour tortilla( try the whole wheat variety. They really taste good). Top with an enchilada sauce, and sprinkle a bit more cheese on top. Bake at 400 degrees for 15-20 minutes.
2. Turkey and Gorgonzola salad- Take Boston lettuce or whatever your preference of lettuce is. Use a few slices of red onion, 1/4 cup sliced toasted almonds. Top with 3 oz. of sliced turkey, and 2 oz Gorgonzola cheese or fat-free feta. Drizzle with your favorite vinaigrette or balsamic vinegar and a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil ( EVOO).
3. Turkey reubens- Put Dijon mustard on 2 slices of rye bread. Put 3 oz turkey on top, 1/2 inch of sauerkraut, a slice of low-fat swiss. You can put 1 tbls. of olive oil, or I spray bread with butter flavored Pam.
4. Turkey Waldorf salad- (Makes 4) Take 1 cup shredded roasted turkey, 1 cut up apple, 2 tbls roasted chopped pecans or walnuts, 2 tbls vanilla yogurt, or plain greek yogurt, and 1 tbls white wine vinegar. Season with salt/pepper to taste. Serve over red-leaf lettuce.
