Leftovers

Those who are lucky enough to host Thanksgiving dinner enjoy the benefits of leftovers. Those of us who show up with tupperware are just as fortunate. This year, I left the plastic containers at home, and missed out on days upon days of creativity of turning disgarded turkey into a culinary wonder.


However, what I had leftover was pumpkin. This kept our Thanksgiving going past Thursday. It is now going to be a staple in our holiday kick-off.

I found this recipe on one of my blog searches. I have been looking for years to find a shake recipe that mimiced the deliciousness of Culver's in Minnesota. This is an incredible delight. Move over turkey, here comes the Pumpkin Shake!



Pumpkin Pie Milk Shake

3/4 cup pumpkin puree
1/4 cup milk
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
3 tablespoons brown sugar, packed
3-4 cups vanilla ice cream
2 graham crackers

Blend and top with whipped cream!!

Better than turkey!
