Leftover Turkey Sandwich
We're reinventing the leftover turkey sandwich with avocado and bacon.
- 1 tbsp butter
- 1 ½ cups shredded turkey mix of white and dark meat
- Salt and freshly ground black pepper
- 4 slices leftover bacon
- 4 slices sandwich bread preferably seeded or rye
- ¼ cup mayonnaise
- ¼ cup leftover cranberry sauce
- 4 crisp lettuce leaves
- 1 avocado sliced
In a medium skillet, melt butter over medium-low heat until foamy. Add the shredded turkey breast and cook until warmed through. Season with salt and pepper. Push turkey to the side of the skillet and add bacon to pan. Heat until warmed through. Reserve.
Lightly toast the bread and divide between 2 plates. Spread 1 tablespoon mayonnaise onto the interior side of each piece of bread. Lay fresh lettuce over each piece of bread.
Divide avocado slices between two pieces of bread, these will be your ‘bottoms’. Top with divided warmed turkey, then bacon.
Spoon cranberry sauce over bacon, then top with the assembled tops. Slice on a diagonal (always) and enjoy!
