What to do with all those leftovers.

Turkey, stuffing, potatoes, half a pie. Here are five easy ways to turn them into something new this weekend, each in 20 minutes or less. Toss your Freeze Pipe in the freezer, make one of these and it'll be ready by the time you're done eating.

Leftover Turkey Sliders

Hot, melty, and gone in about four minutes. Make the whole tray.

20 minMakes 12Oven

Turkey sliders on Hawaiian rolls with Swiss cheese and cranberry sauce

You'll Need

12 Hawaiian sweet rolls, still connected
2 cups leftover turkey, sliced or shredded
6 slices Swiss or provolone
1/2 cup cranberry sauce
3 tbsp butter, melted, plus 1/2 tsp garlic powder

How To Make It

Heat the oven to 350°F. Slice the whole slab of rolls in half sideways and set the tops aside.
Spread cranberry sauce on the bottoms, then layer the turkey and cheese. Put the tops back on.
Stir the garlic powder into the melted butter and brush it over the tops.
Cover with foil and bake 10 to 12 minutes, then uncover for 2 to 3 more until the cheese melts and the tops are golden.

Pro Move

Add a thin layer of leftover stuffing under the turkey. Trust us.

Stuffing Waffles

Crispy outside, soft inside. Your waffle iron has been waiting all year for this.

20 minMakes 2Waffle Iron

Crispy stuffing waffle topped with gravy

You'll Need

2 cups leftover stuffing
1 egg
2 to 3 tbsp broth or gravy
Cooking spray
Warm gravy for the top

How To Make It

Heat the waffle iron and spray it well.
Mix the stuffing, egg and broth until it holds together when you squeeze it.
Press about 1 cup into the iron (a little more for a Belgian iron), close it and cook 6 to 8 minutes until crisp and cooked through. Don't open it early.
Pour warm gravy over the top, or add a fried egg if it's late enough to count as breakfast.

Pro Move

Pile leftover turkey on top and it's a full plate.

Pumpkin Pie Milkshake

A whole slice of pie, crust and all, in a glass. Three minutes, one blender.

3 minMakes 1Blender

Pumpkin pie milkshake with whipped cream

You'll Need

1 slice pumpkin or apple pie, crust included
2 big scoops vanilla ice cream
1/2 cup milk
Whipped cream and a pinch of cinnamon

How To Make It

Drop the pie, ice cream and milk into the blender.
Blend 20 to 30 seconds. A few chunks of crust are a good thing.
Top with whipped cream and a pinch of cinnamon.

Pro Move

Crumble a little extra crust on top for crunch.

Crispy Mashed Potato Cakes

Cold mashed potatoes work better than fresh ones here. Golden edges, soft middle.

20 minMakes 6Skillet

Crispy mashed potato cakes with sour cream and green onions

You'll Need

2 cups cold mashed potatoes
1 egg
1/3 cup flour, plus a little for dusting
1/2 cup shredded cheddar
2 green onions, chopped
3 tbsp oil, plus sour cream to serve

How To Make It

Mix the potatoes, egg, flour, cheddar and most of the green onion. If it's too sticky to shape, add flour a spoonful at a time.
Shape into 6 patties and dust both sides with flour.
Heat the oil in a skillet over medium. Fry in two batches, 3 to 4 minutes per side, until deep golden.
Top with sour cream and the rest of the green onion.

Pro Move

If they feel soft, chill the patties for 10 minutes before frying. They'll hold together better.
