I know, it isn’t even Thanksgiving but I am already sharing ways to use up those leftovers. We all know we are going to have a fridge full of turkey, stuffing, corn, etc. If you are anything like me, you make far too much food for your holiday guests to ensure you don’t run out. This means we all need to come up with creative ways to use up those leftovers the next day. Some of my favorites include this Leftover Thanksgiving Turkey & Cranberry Aioli Sandwic, this Creamy Chardonnay Turkey Crescent Braid and now this Light Cranberry Turkey Quesadilla.

This year I am obsessed with my Spicy Cranberry Salsa, so I decided to put it to good use with leftovers. The obvious choice to pair with any salsa is a quesadilla of course! A light and crispy tortilla is filled with leftover turkey, a little bit of creamy Havarti cheese and some fresh green onions. Top it with a spoonful of the Spicy Cranberry Salsa and you have a spectacularly easy meal after the holidays that you can feel good about!
