We all love Thanksgiving, but what we love even more is the leftovers. This leftover Turkey Sandwich is the ultimate way of enjoying every bit of those tasty Thanksgiving leftovers.
Leftover Turkey Sandwich Recipe
If you don’t have any more turkey leftovers, this sandwich can easily be made with turkey deli meat or leftover rotisserie chicken as well.
Here are a few more ways to use up any other leftovers from your Thanksgiving feast.
How to make a leftover turkey sandwich
- Spread the ranch onto 1 side of all the sourdough bread slices.
- Then begin assembling the sandwich in this order: bread slice, turkey breast, bacon, Havarti cheese, cucumber, red onion, tomatoes, avocado, and spring salad mix. Then top with the other bread slice ranch side down.
- In a skillet with hot olive oil, cook the leftover turkey sandwich on both sides until the bread is golden brown. This step is optional but I love the crunchiness of a panini. You can also make this turkey sandwich in a panini press.
