About this Dish
All the delicious flavors of the holiday season don’t have to end once Thanksgiving celebrations are over! The Queen of the Grill is taking holiday leftovers to a whole new level featuring a cheesy, crispy turkey taco shell.
Ingredients
2/3 c cooked turkey, shredded
2 c Mozzarella-Cheddar cheese blend
1 box of stuffing, prepared or 1-2 cups leftover stuffing
Sweet potatoes, leftover or one sweet potato, cubed and roasted
1 can mushroom gravy
1 can cranberry sauce
1 small red onion, chopped
Any additional toppings desired
Directions
Preheat grill to 375 F.
On a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or a silicone mat, place 1 cup piles of cheese 2 inches apart.
Press the cheese down lightly so it makes one circular layer.
Top with 1/3 cup shredded cooked turkey and cook until turkey is incorporated into the cheese.
Remove from heat and let the cheese cool for 2-3 minutes. Do not let it cool completely!
Lift the cheese with a spatula and place the cheese turkey-side facing down over the handle of a wooden spoon, cup or other utensil to form the taco shell shape.
Let the cheese harden for 2-3 minutes.
Add the fillings of your choice - more turkey, stuffing and sweet potatoes and top with cranberry sauce and red onion.
