Thanksgiving: a day to give thanks and get stuffed. But after all of that eating, what are you supposed to do with your inevitable mountain of leftovers? Lucky for you, the Thanksgiving menu tastes just as good cold as it did the day before. Here are a few ideas to spruce up your day-old turkey and make it something new and exciting for your mouth to be happy about.
