Roast Turkey Sandwich with Cranberry Sauce
One of my favourite parts of the Thanksgiving dinner has to be enjoying the leftovers for the rest of the week and in particular the turkey leftovers. The first thing that I do with the leftover breast meat is make a roast turkey sandwich and it always includes a healthy hit of cranberry sauce! There is just something magical about the combo of turkey, cranberry sauce, mayonnaise, crisp lettuce and juicy tomatoes and I am hopelessly addicted to it. Over the last week I have enjoyed a number of these sandwiches and for a few of them I decided to play around a bit by making them more like turkey club sandwiches by adding bacon, or in this case peameal bacon. You really cannot go wrong adding bacon to anything and in this sandwich it pairs particularly well with the sweet and tart cranberry sauce.

At this moment we are dinning a leftover turkey sandwich but with goat cheese, really delicious . The best part of the Christams dinner
Our favourite leftover turkey sandwich is turkey, mayo, cranberries, stuffing, AND gravy! My god, it is a heart attack awaiting to hit me but oh so good. Sadly we didn't have turkey this year.
I did enjoy a secret sandwich of rare beef tenderloin on bread pmoistened with the port balsamic reduction sauce this afternoon while Paul napped! LOL
My favorite leftover sandwich is turkey, mashed potatoes, collard greens, gravy, and cranberry sauce on a day-old roll. I thought tamales, chili verde and adobo was a good Christmas dinner, but you just made me realize I missed out on my sandwich!
Would it be totally inappropriate to admit that I would like to lick the screen??
Your sandwich looks juicy and delicious! The best possible use of cranberry sauce, in my opinion.
Hmmmm...I would like that. But I always prefer honey glazed ham to turkeys.
The quintessential sandwich and end to a lovely Christmas holiday. I can just taste it from here!
ah yeah! I love this sandwich tooooooooo!
I'm so embarrased! I've never had a turkey and cranberry sauce sandwich. I may have to make a turkey just to try it! With lettuce and mayo...interesting...
The rare beef with balsamic reduction sauce sandwich sounds pretty good.
Isn't turkey with cranberry sauce the ultimate sandwich ever? Love it!
Omigod, this sounds wonderful! The nice mix of sweet and savory reminds me of a bacon, marmalade and pumpernickel sandwich I make, also to die for.
Beautiful Picture! I'm not even a fan of cranberries and I'd make that sammy!
Yes, this looks like a winner in my book!
