Turkey Quesadillas & Cranberry Salsa

After the big Thanksgiving Gorge, I don’t think there is anyone out there who carries the love of cooking torch into the next week. The internet is inundated with leftover recipes, but honestly who has energy to make them? It works to pick at the leftovers (especially the pie) for a few days but eventually people want a meal again. I was late getting home from the big London town and had eaten a big, delicious lunch so was planning to toss the leftovers on the countertop for another night of fend for yourself snacking when I saw a few tortillas in the fridge. My husband took one look and proclaimed the Turkey Quesadillas & Cranberry Salsa “Pilgrim Fusion”. I guess the Pilgrims could have ground their corn into tortillas had they been more adventurous foodies. Luckily for us, our people eventually ventured south and discovered the wonderful world of Mexican cooking. These Turkey Quesadillas & Cranberry Salsa are simply a few leftover ingredients tossed together, but are very good and definitely don’t taste like Thanksgiving leftovers. The Cranberry Salsa is amazingly good with a hit of Cilantro and Red Onions. It tastes like it is not leftover, but a carefully constructed version of the traditional Salsa. Serve it up with super easy and fast Black Bean Soup , a simple Margarita and some shredded cabbage for crunch. Best leftover Thanksgiving dinner yet. Thanks Pilgrims and Mexicans….just shows how well we all get along.
