One thing I am definitely thankful for is that we don't have to cook like that anymore! Today we have it a lot easier.  Matter of fact, most of our Thanksgiving dinner can be prepared from packaged, canned or frozen products and most of us have our traditional family recipes that we prepare year after year.  So, instead of giving you recipes for your Thanksgiving Day dinner I've decided to put a few recipe ideas on here for your LEFTOVER holiday dinner.  I've added links at the bottom of the page for sites that will give you some great advise on preparing your turkey, stuffing and other traditional dishes just in case you need the help or are looking for new ideas.  But for now, on with the leftovers!
