Thanksgiving just wouldn't be Thanksgiving without the big roasted centerpiece, burnished perfection, and lots of gravy.

Leftovers are an inevitable part of the feast but these recipes for 'turkey, part 2' show that it's at least as delectable the second time around – you just need a bit of creative inspiration.
