Happy Thanksgiving Leftovers Everyone!
I have a treat for you. Two recipes instead of just one! (actually 3 if you count the cranberry sauce!)
I found a great leftover turkey wrap that I'll show you how
to make, super, fast, and easy.
But first, I have another recipe that I simply
must share. It's from Alton Brown, of course, whose recipes I love. I came across it the other day when I was
looking for salted caramels.
I've never made caramel before, but I figured it
was time I tried. I mean it's sugar, if I mess it up, it'll still be good
right? (okay if you burn this, it will be destined for the trash can). But
really even if it doesn't set up it still tastes great. Alton's
recipe for Dark Salty Caramels is sublime! I could eat this straight out of
the pan, and I have. All you need is a candy
thermometer, sugar, salt, water, heavy cream and butter, and elastic-waist
pants.
Okay, now on to the easiest turkey leftover recipe ever. I am destined, sadly, not to be a food photographer. But trust me the outcome is much tastier!
Arugula, Cranberry, Turkey Wrap
12 oz. washed baby arugula
1/2 cup of homemade
cranberry relish (easier than you think, and totally worth it, but you can
substitute store bought)
4 flour or whole wheat tortillas
2 Tablespoons Hellman's Mayonnaise (optional)
oh right...
2 cups of shredded leftover turkey meat
Arrange the ingredients like a wrap.
On top of a flat tortilla smear 1 or 2 Tablespoons of
cranberry relish. You may also add the mayonnaise here, which is my preference,(my husband disagrees). So it's up to you if you like mayo. Next add a
handful of arugula, top with turkey and additional cranberry sauce. Roll up and
enjoy!
I'm sure you can tweak this recipe by adding your own
signature to it. Please let me know if you do. I'd love to learn new ways to
enjoy this wrap!
Btw, try not to eat too many of Alton's caramels, I'm sure
when I get on the scale I'll be regretting ever finding the recipe!
Happy Thanksgiving Everyone!!
