Recipe Round Up: Thanksgiving Leftovers

Cranberry curd tarts using the cranberry curd recipe from The New York Times Cooking and dough from Columbia City Bakery.

The best and worst thing about Thanksgiving is the leftovers. It’s great having a full fridge, but the prospect of eating the same thing every day for a week can feel daunting. The good news is the internet is full of creative and fun ideas for spiffing up those full Tupperwares, and we assembled some of the more unique and exciting offerings from Martha Stewart, Sunset Magazine, Bon Appetit, The Food Network Magazine, Food 52, and Saveur. You won’t find a single Turkey sandwich on this list, we promise.
