Turkey and Dumplings

I have the BEST Thanksgiving leftovers idea for y'all guys. I’k definitely non against heating up a regular Thanksgiving dinner today together with through the weekend, only I commonly crave something a fiddling different as well as fun..because I always ask variety! This turkey in addition to dumplings is absolutely to dieee for.

I actually tin’t intend of a cozier, more than nostalgic meal. My mom used to make us beef as well as dumplings growing up, and she used bisquick mix for the dumplings! It was the near delicious pot of comfort as well as my blood brother too I ever devoured it. I didn’t purpose bisquick hither, simply the dumplings are SO slowly.

While this version doesn’t function the stew beef my mom used to use, y'all could sure use whatsoever leftover gist you have on mitt, if you aren’t making this around Thanksgiving time!

I used buttermilk inwards these dumplings in addition to they’re SO fluffy. I could swallow them in mass amounts together with never get sick of them.

After making this recipe, I had it for dinner for several days direct too it was JUST every bit skilful reheated. Which is saying a lot for me!

This comes together inward NO fourth dimension. Thirty minutes roughly if you know your way about the kitchen. Even if y'all don’t, it’second crazy tardily, particularly since you lot’re merely using leftover turkey!

You tin can function any veggies yous similar, but the peas, carrots, onions, too celery brand this sense of taste similar a turkey pot pie. I intend I even like it meliorate than turkey pot pie. I’d pick out fluffy biscuits over crust whatever twenty-four hour period!

The best function of leftovers e'er!
