Hopefully you guys survived Thanksgiving with grins, giggles, memories and lots of leftovers! Sometimes I enjoy post celebration feasts even more than the big day.
Thanksgiving in a jar is simple to prepare. Â All you really need to do is make a Big Batch of quinoa. If you all ready have my Quinoa Stuffing prepared then you you are seconds from a warm & tasty meal.
Nothing like sitting down to a delicious meal that is at the ready when you are.
We love fluffy quinoa, it takes no time at all to cook & is energetic food. Alternatively you could use leftover stuffing.
All you need to do to create your very own Thanksgiving in a Jar is layer all of your holiday leftovers in a mason jar.
You will need some turkey +Â cranberry sauce.
Nutty brussels sprouts or green beans.
Mashed sweet potatoes. Don’t forget the gravy too.
You can also use mashed potatoes, or scalloped potatoes for that matter.
What could be more simple + tasty?
These jars are perfect if you have to race off to work or school and you want to bring Thanksgiving with you!
How do you like to use those Thanksgiving leftovers?

Thanks Rosa!
You have made food look very pretty! Great idea, Marla!
So cute. At Thanksgiving dinner, my family makes fun of how I’ll try and get a little bit of everything on my fork when I take a bite. But that’s the best way–all the flavors and textures are amazing together! I think I’d make mine “Thanksgiving in a bowl” though–I don’t have any jars big enough for all the things I’d want to add! 🙂
Michelle, that is a smart idea ~ probably neater too! I also love to get a bit of each flavor in every bite.
So Cute! I have to say that your Thanksgiving is notably healthier than mine- but I am inspired! I love leftovers, and this is an adorable way to eat them!
Heather, I can’t help it. Even for the holidays I tend to stick to my usual ways. Still as tasty though!
The Nutty brussels sprouts or the mashed sweet potatoes look just lovely in those jars – and with the cranberry sauce, so fun!
Hope you guys had a great day!
Thanks Averie, I thought those brussels sprouts did look super pretty in jars too!
Great idea to give guests their leftovers!
