What kind of person thinks about what they’ll make with their Thanksgiving leftovers, before they even have any Thanksgiving leftovers? This freak of nature over here, that’s who (points at head). What I love about this Turkey Shepherd’s Pie is that it really doesn’t require anything more than dumping what you already have into a casserole dish and baking it. And let’s face it, after Thanksgiving, no one feels like doing much more than that.
The only thing I actually do plan on doing once the Turkey is done, is watching movies. Lots and lots of movies. We’ve got a pretty good list going on our fridge right now. Elf, Home Alone, National Lampoon’s Christmas Vacation, Bad Santa, (my husbands’s choice)….The Sound of Music, (my choice). The only question that remains is will my one-and-a half year old actually let us lay around watch movies all day? (No, the answer to that is no). But we are fully kidding ourselves into thinking that she will and so, the movie list remains. What are your Thanksgiving plans? Family? Seeing lots and lots of family? Playing some Turkey Day Football? Watching some Turkey Day Football? By the way, if your morning involves travel, definitely prepare some make-ahead freezer breakfast sandwiches to take with you. You’re going to need your energy.
