Ingredients

2 cups shredded leftover turkey meat
2 stalks celery, sliced
1/2 cup celery leaves, coarsely chopped, plus more whole leaves for garnish
1 crisp apple, such as Gala or Macintosh, cored and chopped
1 cup red seedless grapes, halved
1/2 cup pecans, toasted, and coarsely chopped
1/2 cup non-fat yogurt
2 tablespoons mayonnaise
1 teaspoon honey
1/4 teaspoon salt, plus more as needed
1 small celery root, peeled and cut into matchsticks
Freshly ground black pepper

Directions

In a large bowl, gently toss the turkey, celery, celery leaves, apple, grapes, and pecans until combined. In a small bowl, whisk together the yogurt, mayonnaise, honey, and 1/4 teaspoon salt until well combined. Put the celery root in a small bowl, add 2 tablespoons of the dressing, and toss to coat completely. Add the remaining dressing to the turkey mixture, season with salt and pepper, and toss gently to evenly dress the salad.

To serve, spread the celery root evenly onto a serving platter, top with the dressed salad, garnish with celery leaves and serve immediately.

Easy and Delicious
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

I made this recipe a few days after Thanksgiving with some leftover turkey. It was very simple and absolutely delicious. Like... the other reviewer, I also think this would taste good with chicken. I would absolutely recommend this recipe to anyone who wants a great fast meal!Read more

Made a few changes to this good basic recipe...
Rated: 4 stars out of 5

Added a small can of pineapple chunks, some diced red onion, and substituted cherry-flavored Craisins for the grapes (just... didn't have any and wasn't going to go buy them...) Had to add a little honey-mustard dressing for more sauciness, but turned out very nicely! I imagine chicken (from a store-bought rotisserie bird) would do very well too! Good reason to make a BIG turkey!Read more
