Method

Instructions for Leftover Cranberry Turkey Sandwich

In a mixing bowl, combine mayonnaise, poultry seasoning, chopped chives, salt, and pepper to create a creamy herbed mayo. Whisk until smooth and evenly blended, which should take about 2-3 minutes.
Take two slices of nutty bread and generously spread the herbed mayo on one side of each slice.
On one slice of the prepared nutty bread, start layering the ingredients. Begin with a few pieces of green leaf lettuce, followed by several slices of leftover turkey, and top with a hearty spoonful of cranberry sauce.
Place the second slice of nutty bread, mayo side down, atop your layered ingredients. Press down gently and slice the sandwich diagonally to create two halves.
Plate your Leftover Cranberry Turkey Sandwich and serve immediately.
