If you have been reading Skimbaco Home, you already know that I interviewed Bobby Flay last week. Bobby Flay and Lori Loughlin held a cooking demonstration in a Hellmann's Mayonnaise test kitchen showing us three simple leftover recipes you can make with leftover turkey and sharing their easy holiday planning tips. The recipes were turkey paella, stuffed mushrooms and turkey reuben, and all of them had a really great way of using mayonnaise (in moderation). Who would have thought that you can make the rice nice and sticky (and spicy) with aioli mayo? Or that the trick for those golden roasted toasts is actually mayo, not butter? The turkey paella was so yummy, super easy to make and you can do it also with leftover roasted chicken. Try it with one of the organic wines Maris recommended yesterday!
