Don't get us wrong: a post-Thanksgiving turkey sandwich is almost better than the holiday meal itself. Especially when you layer the meat with cranberry sauce, brussels sprouts, and gravy mixed with a little mayo. (Seriously, try it.) But this year, think outside the bun to showcase all your holiday goodies: use up turkey in a mushroom-flecked risotto or a sage-scented chowder (don't forget the day-after turkey stock). Extra cranberries can star in a cocktail or a granita. Mashed potatoes make a decadent casserole. Check out all our ideas for stretching Thanksgiving dinner as far as you can below.
