Leftover Thanksgiving Sliders
ATTENTION: DO NOT THROW YOUR THANKSGIVING LEFTOVERS AWAY! We all know there are a ton of leftover turkey recipes or ham recipes.. but what do I do with all of this stuffing? Cranberry sauce? Potatoes? Don't know what to do with them all? I have the most delicious recipe for you. No food waste, happy tummy, AND super easy.
Basically, what I did here is pile all your leftovers in between Hawaiian sweet rolls, add some cheese, bake it to perfection and pull those babies apart for your perfect Thanksgiving bite. So easy. So quick. Again, NO FOOD WASTE!
Who doesn't love Hawaiian sweet rolls? Like, seriously.. they're the best. So soft and sweet and just make everything better. You can totally get creative with this one with whatever you have leftover. Turkey, ham, mashed potatoes, stuffing, cranberry sauce.. do it all! I topped these rolls with some everything bagel seasoning. You can totally leave it out or use your own toppings and get creative. I always support your creativity.
Alright, enough chatting - get to cooking!
