Cranberry Thanksgiving Turkey Sandwich Recipes

Steps:

• Spread each slice of bread with mayonnaise.
• Top with lettuce, turkey and cranberry sauce and remaining slice of bread.

Steps:

• Chop red onion very fine and mix with whole cranberry sauce.
• Smear mayonnaise on one side of sliced bread. Smear cranberry-onion mixture on the other slice of bread.
• Layer turkey slices, bacon and provolone on one side of bread and top with other slice of bread.
• Using a skillet or grill pan, grill sandwich with butter and remove from heat when cheese has melted. Cut sandwich into 2 halves and serve.

Steps:

• Build the sandwich by first spreading pesto on both sides of the bread.
• Layer turkey, lettuce, tomatoes, cranberries, and cheese on to the bottom piece of bread. Add the top. Slice into 6-8 little sandwiches.
• Serve and enjoy with your favorite sparkling wine cocktail at a luncheon. You can also Bake for a few minutes until the cheese melts and serve hot with some warm apple cider in the winter time.
• Note1: I like to prepare fresh pesto straight from my garden the traditional way using lots of fresh basil, lemon juice, toasted pine nuts, garlic, Olive Oil, and salt/pepper.
• Note2: When preparing the turkey, tomatoes, lettuce, and cheese, ensure the sizes fit the size of your bread. For a small baguette, they need to be fairly small.
• Note3: Place the Cranberries directly on the Pesto. They will stick into the sandwich better this way.
• Note 4: It is important to use good quality turkey. I prefer to roast my own after soaking in a basic brine for 24-48 hours. If you don't have the time to do this, use your favorite good quality deli cut.
