Just Say No to Boring Turkey Leftovers

Nov. 23, 2007 — -- If you're sick of the boring, old post-Thanksgiving turkey sandwich, Michael White, the executive chef of New York City's Alto & L'Impero restaurant, has some creative alternatives for those leftovers.

Get recipes for White's turkey PanCotto, an Italian shepherd's pie, and a cranberry tiramisu.

Layered Turkey, Roast Vegetables, Gravy and Mashed Potatoes

Chef's Note: This is my Italian version of shepherd's pie. You may use any leftover vegetables you have for this meal. You may use sweet potatoes in place of mashed potatoes if you have them. This is a perfect dish to use your leftovers.
