Holiday Leftover Turkey Nachos (low FODMAP)

15 minutes prep • 10 minutes cook • Low FODMAP • Gluten-free • Serves 4 • Ok to make ahead: Step 1

One of the best parts of preparing a big holiday meal is the leftovers you get to work with afterward. But how many turkey sandwiches can you actually eat!? This recipe is a great way to change it up and enjoy your leftovers with a whole different flavor profile. They are easy and quick to make and sure to please the whole family, including you!

Ingredients

1 bag (about 10 cups) tortilla chips without FODMAP ingredients

2 cups chopped cooked turkey meat

2 cups extra sharp cheddar cheese, grated

2 cups pepper jack cheese, grated

7 ounce can sliced black olives

7 ounce can chopped green chilies

1/2 cup chopped sweet peppers or jalapeno peppers if you prefer (optional)

1/2 cup cilantro leaves and/or green onions (green part only), chopped

1 cup lactose-free sour cream

Other items to consider adding: Low FODMAP sourdough stuffing, any sort of roasted vegetables you have leftover, and feel free to substitute other kinds of cheese you may have leftover from a charcuterie board in place of the cheddar or the pepper jack.

Directions

Make-ahead note (1): This recipe leverages leftovers so if you’re making from scratch, you’ll want to cook the turkey ahead of time. 

(2) Prepare the ingredients: Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Grate the cheese. Put the sour cream in a small bowl and stir to loosen. Chop the cilantro and/or green onions and set them aside for serving.

(3) Layer the ingredients: Scatter half the chips on a large rimmed baking sheet (or use two smaller sheets). Sprinkle evenly with the turkey, 1/2 the cheese, black olives, chopped green chilies, and any other leftovers you plan to use. Scatter the remaining chips on top followed by the remaining cheese.

(4) Bake: Bake until the cheese is melted and bubbly (but the chips aren’t burned), about 5 to 7 minutes.

(5) Serve: Serve the nachos with sour cream, chopped sweet peppers or jalapenos, cilantro, and/or green onions.

Eat and enjoy every bite because you can!
