More Than a Turkey Sandwich

So the festivities and food fest that is Thanksgiving is over and you are left with a big clean up and more turkey than you know what to do with. If you are not up to turkey sandwiches everyday, try out these 2 healthy and unique ways to use your left over turkey.



The first is Turkey Congee from Roti n Rice. Congee is Chinese rice porridge that is light and tasty as you can add your fave ingredients to make it your own. This recipe uses up your left over turkey and other healthy stuff and is a great introduction to congee if you have never tried it before.









The other is a Quinoa Casserole with Creamy Curry Sauce from Kalyn's Kitchen. Just swap out the chicken for turkey and voila! This recipe is adapted from Quinoa 365: The Everyday Superfood.

Stealing, Cheating and Envy...


We all have those friends who seem to do everything with ease. They manage a balance between work and play, and nothing really rattles them.

ENVY is my first response. But then I realize we can really learn a thing or two from them.

So, after attending a stellar dinner party where they made a colourful and delicious Tricolour Quinoa, I decided to steal the recipe and serve it at one of my own parties. I even made it easier on myself by using pre-made pesto (don't tell anyone!)

Best swipe ever :)
