Leftover Turkey Ideas

Don't know what to do with the left over turkey in your refrigerator?  You can always substitute chicken in recipes for the turkey.
I came across this Southwestern Chili recipe on My Daily Moments Recipe of the Day.
It looks yummy and I like a little cha cha in my dinner.

Wassail

I enjoy Christmas goodies, but the most wonderful treat of all on a cold day is Wassail!
You can put some in a thermos to keep it hot and warm not only the body but the spirit too!

2 Cinnamon sticks
1 teaspoon allspice
1/2 cup packed brown sugar
1 teaspoon whole cloves
2 quarts apple cider
1 orange, sliced


Place cinnamon sticks, cloves, and allspice in a double thickness cheesecloth; bring up corners and tie with a string from a bag.
Place cider and brown sugar in a slow cooker, and stir until sugar dissolves.  Add spice bag.  Place orange slices on top. Cover and cook on low for 3 hours. Remove spice bag when ready to serve.

YUMMY!
