Turkey Croquettes

Ahhh black Friday, the day after Thanksgiving. Did you host Thanksgiving in your home? If so, how much food did you send your guests home with? How much do you still have?

If you have a ton of turkey and stuffing left over, I have a great recipe that I came across for Turkey Croquettes! I made some small adaptations to the recipe, to shave off a few calories but otherwise this is a great way to do something different with your left overs! Add a small side salad and you have healthier day after Thanksgiving meal!
