Tip #4: Don’t fall on what you stumble upon…run with it

I have this morning routine where I promptly shut off my alarm, stumble out of bed, hit the power button on the remote and alternate between watching the different morning shows that are being aired.
I enjoy the food segments most and wanted to provide some links to the food that is prepared on-air. It’s always beneficial to watch some of these segments, because they typically provide recipes that aren’t too difficult to prepare and involve ingredients that are easily attainable.

You may have gone to bed one night not knowing what to make for dinner the next night(at least I’m ALWAYS thinking about food) but by morning, the food segment on the morning show will definitely give you some great ideas about what to cook.
As I was searching for some good recipes accompanied by video on today.msnbc.msn.com, I came across the most relevant of advertisements. The ad dealt with Hellmann’s Mayonnaise and The Real Food Project. Chef Bobby Flay talks about turkey leftovers & Hellmann’s mayonnaise to create a turkey reuben.
Could this get anymore perfect? Soon enough we will be indulging in lots of turkey, but will probably end up with more leftover than in our stomachs.  Flay describes the perfect thing to do with those leftovers, in a video where he quickly shows you how to put the sandwich together.
Here is another recipe for a turkey sandwich. This is actually a recipe I found searching the Today Show website for an idea for leftover turkey. It's a grilled sage cheddar and turkey sandwich.

The Bobby Flay recipe and the one in the video above are perfect for leftover turkey. I will certainly test them out after Thanksgiving to get the energy needed to shop all day on Black Friday!

These are just two simple recipes, but I'd like to know what you do with your Thanksgiving leftovers! It's never too early to think about that...like I said, I'm ALWAYS thinking about food.

 I want to leave you with the tip of taking advantage of the advertisments, TV segments and online food videos that you may just stumble upon, because even though you weren't expecting to find them, they will provide another night with food on the table and money still in your pocket!
