Thanksgiving turkey egg rolls are the most delicious way to use up Thanksgiving leftovers. A crispy, golden brown egg roll wrapper surrounds your favorite Thanksgiving flavors.
Dip in leftover gravy or spread on extra cranberry sauce. You might make these for the Thanksgiving meal next year! If you have a few extra cups of leftover smoked turkey, that would be so delicious in this recipe.
