Dave's Fresh Marketplace: Thanksgiving Leftover Pie
Who doesn't love a holiday that's all about the food? Sure, there's family too, and it's the one day of the year that you can see a giant Snoopy balloon and your favorite football team in one afternoon. But it's not Thanksgiving without the turkey, stuffing, mashed potatoes, gravy and those sweet potatoes with the little marshmallows. Maybe a little cranberry sauce on the side. Oh, and the pies. Apple, pumpkin, pecan, I'm not picky as long as there's whipped cream for the top. Plus it's one last day of relaxation before the crazy sprint to Christmas begins on Black Friday.
Best of all, Thanksgiving dinner is one of those things that tastes better as turkey sandwiches the next day. And turkey soup the day after that. But once you've exhausted your creative ways to use up those lingering leftovers, try this tasty Thanksgiving Leftover Pie from Dave's Marketplace.
