STIR-FRIED TURKEY AND BRUSSELS SPROUTS
A stir-fry is always a great way to use a little bit of leftover meat with a lot of vegetables. This one is quickly accomplished because the turkey is already cooked and it's thrown into the colorful, gingery mix at the last minute. Once you add the turkey it's important to stir-fry only long enough to heat the turkey through or it will be dry and stringy. If you are making this just after Thanksgiving and you happen to have leftover Brussels sprouts too, then you can reduce the cooking time even more, adding them along with the turkey after you've stir-fried the red peppers, and just stir-frying to heat through.
