The Thanksgiving dinner is over, and now there's a mountain of leftovers. What now? Fortunately, the Hebron 121 Station apartment gives residents options for using those leftovers. Something as simple as a picnic by the pool brings another level of enjoyment to otherwise drab leftover ingredients. Lewisville has several outdoor recreation areas suitable for picnics. Nearby Lake Lewisville and the LLELA Nature Preserve provide opportunities for outdoor recreation, a perfect setting for cranberry and turkey sandwiches.
Fall & Thanksgiving Treats Even After the Holiday
Pumpkin and apple desserts can be enjoyed year-round. Thus, these desserts will never be leftovers. Consider making some hot apple cider with any leftover apples. Nothing smells like fall, like hot apple cider on a cold winter's day. If there are too many birds for the fridge, try a DIY bake with other ingredients in the pantry. Whole sweet potato leftovers can make traditional Mexican sweet potato candy.
Storing Your Leftovers
Sometimes, just finding places to store all those leftover Thanksgiving ingredients is challenging for people who live in apartments. Remember, storage solutions can't damage or alter the apartment. Many items can be frozen and put into a freezer for storage. Vacuum packing is best because it removes air from the bag that can later spoil the food. If there are leftover pies, get some round pie storage containers that conserve space in the fridge.
Gives Thanks All Year
Enjoying Thanksgiving all year long is the best thing about storing Thanksgiving leftovers. From taking a leftover pumpkin pie to the January potluck to a picnic at one of Lewisville, Texas's many outdoor spaces, Thanksgiving leftovers give people a way of celebrating food all year. Next time don't throw food away. Get creative with space-saving storage.
