What to Do with Thanksgiving Leftovers

Pozole is a brothy, hearty Mexican soup made with hominy and meat, such as beef or pork, or seafood or vegetables. It comes in three main varieties: pozole verde (green pozole) made of tomatillos, green chilies, and herbs, pozole rojo (red pozole) made of red chilies, and pozole blanco (white pozole) with no additional chilies.
Pozole is traditionally a very long-cooking, multi-step process. This is a quick and easy recipe for Leftover Thanksgiving Turkey Pozole Verde, an adaptation of the classic recipe-with a secret ingredient that can help you get it on the table in less than an hour.

    Happy Thanksgiving, Virginia.
    I’ve have made your pumpkin gingerbread twice and it’s been a big hit. It’s a keeper recipe for me (like your $20,000 rice pilaf, which I’ve been making for years). Do you think it would work to add chopped pecans to the gingerbread recipe, or would that be overdoing it?
    Also, you have posted about walking along the Chattahoochee: For someone new to that trail who’s used to walking on wide paved trails, can you recommend a good location to start out with?
