Greetings!
The day after Thanksgiving is one of my favorites. No big cooking plans, just cozy clothes, a little kitchen cleanup, and figuring out fun ways to use up all those leftovers.
This is the recipe I make when I want something warm, comforting, and completely different from the original plate. It is easy, cheesy, slightly sweet, and always disappears fast in my house.
Be Well,

Extra Toppings: Keep Herbs Fresh Longer
Store fresh herbs in a jar with a little water in the fridge, just like a bouquet of flowers. Cover loosely with a plastic bag and they will last days longer.
