Repurpose Thanksgiving leftovers in this quick and easy turkey cranberry sandwich – it’s like a holiday in your mouth!
A Thanksgiving Leftover Sandwich!
We love Thanksgiving leftovers almost as much as the main meal! A turkey cranberry sandwich is a favorite way to use them up for a second dinner (when we’re finally hungry again) or the next day.
In one fell swoop, we incorporate the Turkey, Cranberry Sauce, and Stuffing into a new, delicious Thanksgiving leftover sandwich! The kids have so much fun layering it all and even adding a few additions (like cheese and Gravy to the mix!)
The combination of flavors makes it taste like a HOLIDAY in your mouth.
WHY WE LOVE IT:
- Leftover turkey recipe. Repurpose your favorite Thanksgiving foods in one sandwich. It makes for one quick and easy lunch or dinner.
- Flavor trifecta. Enjoy all of your favorite Thanksgiving dishes in one satisfying bite.
- Ready in minutes. Using leftovers means you’ve already done all of the work. These sandwiches are on the table in 10 minutes or less!
