If you’re surfing the net today it’s probably for one of two reasons: you need to escape from your family, or you’ve got no idea what to do with all those leftovers. And maybe it’s both: you’ve got no idea what to do with your family that has refused to consume another bite of turkey.

I know the scenario. Even though everyone’s complaining that they overate, there’s enough turkey sitting in your fridge to host another banquet. How many post-Thanksgiving turkey sandwiches can you eat by yourself?

So here’s a super solution: Turkey Chili Verde with Loaded Corn Muffins. Dice up your leftover turkey meat and toss it into a hearty chili. And if you’ve got leftover corn use it in the loaded muffins. They’re a cinch to make, and are chock full of delicious sweet corn and green onions.

What’s best about this recipe? It comes out perfect every time, even if you’re a beginner cook!

Prep time is 10 minutes and it takes a total of 20 minutes to bring a delicious, piping hot dish to the table. It’s sure to satisfy everyone – even the folks who said they would never ever ever touch turkey again.

Here are a couple more great leftover turkey dishes: Cranberry and Turkey wontons, Turkey Minestrone.
