What to do with the leftovers

Turkey and stuffing galore. Here's some ideas to make yummy nosh using leftovers from yesterday's Thanksgiving feast:

Omelette: Turkey, cremed spinach, tomato, onion, and cheddar cheese. Top omelette with sour cream.
Sandwich: Turkey, stuffing, potato, cranberry sauce on ciabatta bread
Soup: Turkey, potato, green beans, carrots, some gravy, and chicken stock.
Salad: green salad mix, turkey, pecans, cheese cubes, avocado, and honey mustard dressing.
Vegetarian sandwich: leftover spring salad, tomato, yams, swiss cheese in pita with sweet tomato aoli.

Nibble before Thanksgiving dinner

All this week, in celebration of Thanksgiving, we are going to focus on all things turkey.

One of the benefits of Thanksgiving noshing is that you will have plenty of room in your tummy for that scrumptious turkey feast. Instead of eating breakfast and lunch on Turkey day, simply nosh on little tidbits that are undoubtedly lingering around the kitchen.

Nosh to loose weight

The wonderful thing about noshing is that it can help you loose weight. Many personal trainers suggest that you eat 5-6 small meals during the day as opposed to 3 big ones. The reasoning is that eating smaller meals, more often makes it easier for your body to process and metabolize the food, which in turn helps your metabolism.

When you eat really big meals, it creates a lot more work for your body. The food sits in the stomach much longer, and therefore takes longer to go through the whole digestion process.

Noshing is a simple strategy in the battle of the bulge.
