Leftover Turkey Salad Tips
  • Feel free to use the shredding attachment of a food processor or use a mandolin to shred your veggies. This makes life much quicker.
  • However, a sharp knife and a cutting board work just as well if a little longer.
  • Feel free to use other veggies to your – cucumber, brussels sprouts, celery, raw cauliflower etc can all work. The more the merrier
  • You can easily swap the turkey for chicken if you prefer.
