I like to make a version of Turkey Tetrazinni.

Make a cream and cheese sauce (I like to use a nice soft swiss for the cheese) boil your favorite noodle.

Mix some chopped turkey, sliced mushrooms, and the sauce together, and place in a baking dish with breadcrumbs over the top.

Bake until the top is nice and crispy at 350 degrees.

Yummy and pretty easy.

I also like to make Turkey vegetable Soup. The "carcass" of the turkey makes great broth for soup as the bones are full of marrow and flavor.

Also open-faced turkey and gravy sandwiches.

Turkey crochets... mince up some turkey and mix with egg, cheese, leftover mashed potato and some yummy veggies... form into patties and fry in a skillet. Serve with sour cream.

That's all I can think of for now.

Turkey pot pie, use canned chicken gravy and load it with your favorite veggies. Thats what I did when I had extra turkey leftover from thanksgiving. To save calories don't make a crust or you can use bisquick and just pour it on top and bake.

Turkey burritoes, turkey chili mmmmm mmmm !!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.
