Like most Thanksgiving dinners, you might find yourself with a large container of leftover turkey and wondering how you might eat it all. Instead of reheating leftovers, make something else instead! This stew can also help you use up extra celery, onion, and potatoes that you might have had on hand for preparing your feast.

  • Author: Addie Gundry
  • Prep Time: 15 minutes
  • Cook Time: 25 minutes
  • Total Time: 40 minutes

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 1 onion, diced
  • 2 celery stalks, diced
  • 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt, plus more to taste
  • 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
  • 6 yellow potatoes, diced
