Turkey Alfredo from Thanksgiving Leftovers! Here’s a wonderful way to enjoy some of that bountiful leftover holiday turkey. The rich alfredo cream sauce complements the savory flavor of turkey and to complete the meal simply add a bit of steamed chopped broccoli.

Since veggies often come in the steamer bags, you can cook one bag in the microwave or reheat some leftover veggies from the holiday dinner.

You’ll Need:
1/4 cup butter
1 cup heavy cream
1 clove garlic, crushed
1 1/2 cups freshly grated Parmesan cheese
1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley
1 c. Chopped Turkey, (cooked)
1/2 c. chopped broccoli (steamed)

Melt butter in a medium saucepan over medium low heat. Add cream and simmer for 5 minutes, then add garlic and cheese and whisk quickly, heating through. Stir in parsley, turkey, and broccoli (if using). Cool and freeze for later or serve over hot pasta or steamed zoodles.

Melissa "Liss" Burnell started Budget101.com in 2001 because she needed it to exist — not because she saw a market opportunity. She was feeding a family of four on under $200 a month, and people kept asking how, so she started writing everything down.

That turned into 25 years of recipes, debt-busting strategies, and DIY content — including figuring out how to make 128 loads of laundry detergent for less than $2. Millions of families have quietly used this site to stretch a dollar without feeling like they're sacrificing anything. She's also the author of two bestselling budget cooking ebooks, available on Amazon.
