Thanksgiving Leftovers Will Work Harder This Year As 72 Percent Of American Home Cooks Seek To Stretch Holiday Food Dollars
Top 2008 Day-After-Turkey-Day Recipes Served by Allrecipes.com, America's #1 Food Site, with Fun, Interactive Leftovers Recipe Collection
SEATTLE, Nov. 26 /PRNewswire/ -- It won't be "toss out the turkey" this year. A recent survey of the Allrecipes community of home cooks showed 72 percent intended to stretch their Thanksgiving food dollars. This means more Americans than ever will take a second look at their remaining turkey, mashed potatoes, and green bean casserole and think thriftily about soup, casseroles, pot pie, and turkey a la king. It's time to get more gobble, gobble for the buck!
To make delicious leftovers a snap, Allrecipes is serving up Day-After-Thanksgiving recipes in a new home page feature. At 12:01 AM on Friday (just in case someone craves a midnight snack), a new Leftovers tab replaces the site's featured Thanksgiving tab: http://allrecipes.com/features/holidays/thanksgiving/leftovers/home.aspx.
The Day After Thanksgiving tab links to inventive and inspired ways to enjoy sandwiches, snacks, tree trimming treats, even Black Friday breakfast "quick bites" -- to get everyone out of the house fast and off to the sales -- all provided by the Allrecipes community of 55 million home cooks. For added fun, each of the dishes on the page's rotating table is half empty, the turkey sliced, and the gravy boat in need of clean-up. For a sneak preview, look below:
