A burrito filling made from turkey, potatoes and dressing is heated in a slow cooker then rolled in a warm flour tortilla with Cheddar cheese and diced jalapenos in this suggestion for Thanksgiving leftovers.
INGREDIENTS (for 1 servings):
- 3 cups cooked turkey, cut into bite-size pieces
- 1 cup prepared stuffing
- 1 cup mashed potatoes
- 1 cup leftover gravy
- 2 quarts turkey broth
- 1 large onion, chopped
- 1/4 cup self-rising flour
- 10 (10 inch) flour tortillas
- 1 (8 ounce) package shredded Cheddar cheese
- 3 pickled jalapeno peppers, sliced
- 3 tablespoons pickled jalapeno pepper juice
- salt and pepper to taste
- 1 tablespoon dried parsley
PREPARATION:
In a large pot, combine turkey, stuffing, mashed potatoes, gravy, broth, and onion. Bring to a boil, and cook until onion is soft. Thicken with flour if needed.
Warm tortillas in a dry frying pan over medium heat. Spoon turkey mixture onto a warm tortilla, sprinkle with cheese, and roll into a burrito. Repeat with remaining ingredients.
Spread more cheese on top and add another spoonful of the turkey mixture over the cheese. Garnish with jalapeno slices, sprinkle with jalapeno juice, and season with salt, pepper, and parsley. Serve hot.
Notes:Use what you have leftover from Thanksgiving dinner. Make it heavy on the turkey and lighter on the potatoes, dressing, and gravy. It's not supposed to be real thick.
Any type of shredded cheese will work in this recipe.
