How To Store Leftovers
Don't tie up valuable space in the refrigerator with the turkey carcass. Remove the meat from the bones. Place white meat
slices and dark meat pieces in separate zip-top plastic bags--ready for sandwiches or other recipes. For additional information,
call the 24-hour Butterball Turkey Talk-Line at 1-800-BUTTERBALL (1-800-288-8372), or visit www.butterball.com.
Tips and Tidbits
Do as much as possible ahead of time to enjoy a stress-free Thanksgiving feast. These hints will make your meal planning
easier.
- Bake, crumble, and store cornbread for dressing in a zip-top plastic bag in the refrigerator up to five days ahead.
- Cranberry sauce and relish can be made two or three days ahead.
- Chop onion, celery, and green pepper for dressing up to three days ahead, and store in zip-top plastic bags in the refrigerator.
- Don't forget about your microwave oven. Use it to melt chocolate, soften butter, and steam vegetables.
