Thanksgiving Leftover Magic: Transforming Your Feast with 17th Street Deli Style

Celebrating Leftovers as Treasures

Thanksgiving is a time of gratitude, family, friends, and, of course, a bountiful feast. But what happens when the feast ends, and you're left with a fridge full of leftovers? This year, let's transform these treasures with a 17th Street Deli twist!

Creative Sandwiches with a Thanksgiving Twist

At 17th Street Deli, we believe a sandwich is a canvas for creativity. Imagine a sandwich stacked with savory turkey, a spoonful of stuffing, a dash of cranberry sauce, and a drizzle of gravy. This is where Thanksgiving meets innovation in the realm of sandwiches.

Light and Healthy Post-Thanksgiving Salads

After indulging in the richness of Thanksgiving, a light salad can be a refreshing change. Toss chunks of turkey with mixed greens, roasted veggies, and a light vinaigrette. It's a wholesome way to repurpose leftovers while keeping your meals balanced.

Heartwarming Soups and Stews

As the weather chills, soups and stews become the comfort foods of choice. Simmer turkey bones to create a rich broth, add leftover veggies, some barley or rice, and enjoy a hearty soup that warms the soul.

Brunching with Leftovers

Transform your Thanksgiving leftovers into a delightful brunch. How about turkey and cranberry sauce quesadillas? Or stuffing waffles topped with a poached egg? These innovative dishes turn your leftovers into a celebratory brunch.

Safety First: Handling Leftovers

Safety is paramount when it comes to leftovers. Store them in airtight containers and consume within 3-4 days. When reheating, ensure they reach an internal temperature of 165°F to prevent foodborne illnesses.

This Thanksgiving, let's look at leftovers with new excitement and creativity. Whether it's a sandwich, salad, soup, or a unique brunch creation, there's a world of possibilities waiting in your fridge. And when you need more inspiration, or simply a break from the kitchen, remember that 17th Street Deli is here with fresh, delicious options ready for you.

Happy Thanksgiving, and here's to enjoying every last bite of your feast, in every form it may take! 🦃🥪🍲
