Leftover Turkey Meal Prep
Properly storing your leftover turkey is key to preventing food waste and ensuring safe and delicious meals the days following the holidays. Follow these easy tips to help make sure it's fresh and flavorful:
Portion it out: Divide the turkey into individual portions before storing it in the refrigerator. This will make it easier to use and prevent freezer burn.
Freeze it if you need to: If you won't be eating all of the turkey within a few days, you can freeze it for later use. Wrap the turkey tightly in freezer paper or plastic wrap and place it in a freezer-safe container. It will stay frozen for up to three months.
Use it within a few days: Leftover turkey is best eaten within three days of cooking. After that, it may start to dry out.

Picky Eaters Checklist
When putting together a meal plan while you have kids or even adults who are picky eaters, it's important to keep a few things in mind.
Remember that not only are kids picky about the taste of food, but some can be pick about the texture of food, and whether or not the food is spicy.
You'll need to consider any dietary restrictions or allergies that may limit food options. And be mindful about presentation. Some picky eaters may have a hard time with foods that are mixed or even touching each other on a plate.
