Festive Foodie: Leftovers Sliders

It goes without saying that one of my favorite things about Thanksgiving is the abundance of leftovers I’m sent home with.

It has been a long time since I’ve stepped foot in New York City, with my last day trip/weekend in Manhattan and Brooklyn taking place circa 2018/2019.
