What's Your Perfect Thanksgiving Leftovers Sandwich?

November 26, 2009 9:42 am · Posted by nancyeinhart


Happy Thanksgiving everyone! Today, we come together to celebrate, but I'm already looking forward to tomorrow. On the fourth Friday of November (or late on the fourth Thursday night, depending on the amount of alcohol consumed), millions of people nationwide take the turkey, stuffing, and other leftovers from that most beloved American feast, the Thanksgiving dinner, and give them new life in the form of a sandwich.

I think I look forward to the leftover sandwiches more than the main event. My standby includes white-meat turkey, cranberry sauce, Swiss cheese or similar, lettuce, and soft wheat bread. Of course, if the gang ends up staying out until 4 a.m. on Thanksgiving night, our "sandwiches" look more like this one at left.

The point is: I need some fresh ideas for my sandwich tomorrow. So tell me, what are the essentials for your perfect post-Thanksgiving sandwich?

I am such a boring person when it comes to this: toasted wheat bread, mayo, sliced white meat, and salt and pepper.

my brother likes to hollow out a leftover soft dinner roll, fill it with shredded turkey and cranberry, and then seal the hole in the bread with a layer of mashed potatoes. who am i kidding, i like it too.
