Just make as many as you plan to eat or serve and make sure to store your Thanksgiving leftovers safely and discard them when they are past their prime.
Tips and Tricks
- You can use any leftovers from Thanksgiving and don’t have to just stick to turkey, mashed potatoes, and stuffing. Use up that leftover green bean casserole, sweet potatoes, etc.
- On that note, you can also adjust the amounts to suit your tastes or what you have left.
- Don’t overstuff your burrito. You want it to be able to close nicely.
