Leftovers the next day is one of the best parts of a huge Thanksgiving meal. But after another few days you are sick of it. This recipe is a quick and easy way to reinvent the turkey and gravy into something new and fabulous.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tips for Crepe Making <\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Crepes are actually really easy to make. Except the first one. There is a French expression that \"the first crepe is for the dogs\". It is almost always a mess. Don't get discouraged. Adjust the heat or the batter if needed, regrease the pan and munch on the evidence while you try again. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

You should prepare the crepe batter at least an hour<\/strong> before cooking (dump everything in a blender and whir!) to allow the batter to fully hydrate. But, if you forget to do that I've found the crepes are still fine if you cook without the resting period.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I have included a basic crepe recipe, but if you have sourdough starter you might want to make these Sourdough Crepes<\/a> instead. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Or buy premade crepes. < judgement free zone here.<\/em>><\/p>\n\n\n\n
