Leftovers?! Oh no!

Yes, we all know leftovers get boring. Any time you have a big (or not-so-big) feast, there could easily be leftovers, right? We demand variety! None of that feast after feast after feast crap! Let's say you had turkey and stuffing left over. All you need is some mayonnaise, some dill, shredded cheese, and a tortilla or two...or three.

What you'll need:
Turkey
Stuffing
Mayonnaise
Dill
Shredded Cheese (optional)
Spinach (optional)
1-3 tortillas (or more if you're THAT hungry...)

What to do:
Warm up the tortilla(s), the stuffing, and the turkey to the desired temperature.
Plate the tortilla(s)
Spread the mayonnaise over 1/3 of the tortilla (starting at an end. This will be in the middle when this is done.)
Add a few pinches of dill (not too much or it'll taste like turkey and pickles) through the center of the mayo.
1/6 of the way up the tortilla (mayonnaise facing you, so halfway up the mayonnaise) add the stuffing.
Up to the next 1/3 of the tortilla, place a few pieces of turkey (too much and it'll fall out when you roll it)
Add a few rinsed leaves of spinach over the turkey and stuffing.
Add cheese over the spinach.
Roll the tortilla. I find it works best with one tight roll at the mayo end, then fold in the sides, then tightly roll the rest of the way, making sure the sides stay parallel (if they don't, which they probably won't, just fold in what's left until they are).
Eat and...well, it's leftovers. What can you expect?

  1. Soups and casseroles are the staple "left over makers" in my home. XD

  2. I like variety ^_^ I'll make it pretty much anything...it's pretty easy to add stuff to spaghetti or fettuccine, too.
