Looking for Thanksgiving Leftover Recipe Ideas? I’ve got you covered with these delicious dishes ranging from simple to fully-transformed! Originally, I thought that this post wouldn’t appeal to many. But, after doing a poll on Instagram (finally), it was a resounding “YES!!” from a large majority of you!

So, I got to work, and made 3 of these just this morning, while the last couple are from years prior. I hope that you love them as much as I do! But, I must say, that the quality of the outcome depends on what your leftovers are like. If you like your leftovers, you’ll probably be just fine! Though, you may need to add a lil’ something here or there, depending on your preferences.

First, I tried out something new (to me), the Stuffing Waffle! In terms of Thanksgiving leftover recipe ideas, this one seems odd to some, but damn, it was GOOD! I topped it with a scoop of mashed potatoes, and a drizzle of gravy; so three leftovers in one dish. Rough recipe below the photo.

Prep Time: 5 minutes

Cook Time: 10 minutes

Print

Ingredients

• 1/3 cup hot water
• 2 tablespoons ground flaxseed
• 3 cups vegan stuffing
• 1 cup mashed potatoes
• 1/2 cup gravy

Instructions

1. Preheat a waffle iron to medium high heat. In a small bowl, whisk hot water and flaxseed together. In a large mixing bowl, stir together stuffing and flaxseed egg, until combined.
2. Pack the stuffing into a large Belgian waffle maker, or split the stuffing mixture in two for a regular waffle maker. Cook for 8-12 minutes, depending on the size of your waffle maker, and how wet the stuffing is. Waffles will be done when most of the steam has subsided.
3. You may want to cook the waffle longer, if you like it on the crispier side. Top with a scoop of mashed potatoes and drizzle gravy over the top! Serve while hot.
