If you are lucky enough to have leftovers after Thanksgiving, here are some simple recipes to put your turkey to good use.

With all the effort that goes into holiday cooking, make sure you have enough for leftovers. These delicious recipes are perfect for your extra turkey and chicken and stretch dollars after all that holiday spending. Consider cooking a bigger turkey than you need or add an extra chicken to the roasting pan since they both lend themselves especially well to day-after-the-party meals. With only about 144 calories and less than 2 grams of saturated fat per 3-ounce serving, roasted turkey or chicken is healthy as well. Plus, cooked poultry is endlessly versatile. Try these easy, healthy recipes featuring cooked turkey or chicken—they’re all easy on the cook and easy on the budget.

Tip: If you don’t have leftover turkey, you can quickly poach some chicken. Place boneless, skinless chicken breasts in a medium skillet or saucepan. Add lightly salted water to cover and bring to a boil. Cover, reduce heat to low and simmer gently until chicken is cooked through and no longer pink in the middle, 10 to 12 minutes.
