After cooking a large thanksgiving dinner, the thought of eating leftovers might be too much.  Freezing what remains is a great way to use what’s left for a time down the road when you just don’t feel like cooking. Hot turkey sandwiches are a classic comfort food that will satisfy the hungriest diner.  Pull these homemade TV dinners out of the freezer when you are ready and enjoy a home cooked meal.
