    This year we had a frozen medium crown from aldi. After xmas dinner I put all the leftovers (apart from turkey) in freezer. This left me with a lot of turkey to deal with. Yesterday we had sandwiches. Today will have turkey stew. Tomorrow was gonna do a pasta bake to hopefully finish it off. Keep forgetting we dont eat so much now. Just posting to check it’s ok to cook turkey in pasta bake tomorrow or is that too late?

    @otb666 yes, that’s completely fine to use the turkey in the baked pasta. Alternatively, if you’re already sick of it, just freeze what you have left for another turkey dinner in January or February. There’s no rule saying you have to finish all of it now. 🙂
