Turkey Burritos

When I review a book for an Author, I request they submit one of their favorite recipes.  I post the review and their recipe to my site A Book and A Dish.  Mary is the Author of Down to the Needle and when I asked that she send her recipe, she sent 2.  I posted her recipe for Nut Stuffed Acorn Squash with my review and decided, due to the holidays, I would share her leftover turkey recipe with everyone.  This is a good one!

Turkey Burritos

Sprinkle 1 large flat flour tortilla with a Hand full of Shredded Cheese (4-Cheese Mexican adds to the flavor.)
Liberally crumble left over Stuffing all over
Dot liberally with left over mashed potatoes (can also use steamed rice instead)
Layer small chunks of leftover turkey all over the top of this
Dot with butter or margarine.

(Do not include Yams. They will ruin the taste. Serve them on the side, if your wish.)

Roll into a burrito shape. Roll up in a paper towel.

Heat in microwave 1 minute, 1 1/2 minutes if you've made yourself a super burrito.

Serve with, of course, left over Cranberry Sauce.

This is the next best way to eating all the ingredients other than fresh from the oven. This is delicious, too, because you get a mouthful of all the flavors at once.

Cheers!
