What Leftovers Will Work Best?
We know it may sound a little daunting at first, but trust us on this one. Your typical leftovers are a great starting point for this recipe, like as leftover mashed potatoes, turkey, stuffing, and cranberry sauce. However, other leftovers can be incorporated to create delicious flavor combos. You can use things like leftover vegetables, cheese, herbs, and even crispy bacon! The possibilities are endless to make it your own. In the meantime, here’s a guide on how to make it:
Ingredients

Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 450°F (232°C) or follow the temperature specified on your pizza dough package.
- Roll out your pizza dough to your desired thickness on a floured surface. Adjust the thickness according to your preference.
- Brush the rolled-out dough with olive oil to ensure a golden and crispy crust.
- Spread a generous layer of leftover gravy over the pizza dough as your sauce base.
- Start with a layer of mashed potatoes, followed by stuffing, turkey slices, and cranberry sauce. Sprinkle your choice of cheese on top and use any other leftovers you prefer!
- Season your pizza with a pinch of salt, freshly ground black pepper, and your preferred herbs and spices and then transfer the pizza to the oven.
