Step-by-Step Instructions for Classic Leftover Turkey Cranberry Sandwich
- In a small bowl, mix together 2 tablespoons of mayonnaise, 1 teaspoon of poultry seasoning, 1 tablespoon of chopped chives, and a pinch of salt and pepper. Stir until the ingredients are evenly combined and creamy.
- Take two slices of nutty bread and spread a generous layer of the herbed mayonnaise on one side of each slice.
- On one slice of the bread, layer 1-2 slices of cheese, a handful of fresh green leaf lettuce, and a generous portion of sliced leftover turkey. Spoon a dollop of cranberry sauce on top of the turkey.
- Carefully place the second slice of bread, mayo-side down, on top of the layered ingredients. Press down gently to meld the flavors together and create a sturdy sandwich.
- For an extra layer of crunch, heat a skillet over medium heat and lightly toast the assembled sandwich for 2-3 minutes on each side until golden brown.
- Once toasted to perfection, remove the sandwich from the skillet and allow it to cool slightly before serving. Cut it in half if it's too large, and plate it with a side of sweet potato fries or a light salad for a complete meal.
