The Best Leftover Turkey Club Sub Sandwich
Make this luscious leftover turkey sandwich on the day after your big feast, be it Thanksgiving or Christmas. When served like this you'll find the leftovers are just as popular as the main event.
Ingredients
- 1 45 cm French Loaf (baguette)
- 3 tablespoon mayonnaise
- 2 teaspoon grain mustard
- 1 teaspoon honey
- 6 slices Edam Cheese I used pre-sliced cheese
- 200 grams sliced cooked turkey
- 5 rashers streaky bacon grilled until crisp
- ½ cucumber, thinly sliced
- 3 tomatoes, thinly sliced
- 100 grams sliced gherkins or cucumber pickle
Instructions
- Slice a 45 cm (18 in) french loaf in half lengthwise.
- Mix 3 tbsp mayonnaise, 2 tsp grain mustard and 1 tsp honey in a bowl, then spread on the bottom layer of the french loaf.
- Lay 6 slices of Edam cheese slices over the mayonnaise mix. Then layer on 200 grams (1 cup) cooked turkey. .
- Cover the cooked turkey with 5 slices of crisp grilled steaky bacon.
- Add cucumber (approximately ½ cucumber) and 3 tomatoes sliced. Finish with 100 grams sliced pickled gherkins or homemade cucumber pickle.
- Slice into 6 substantial sandwiches, go bigger or smaller whatever suits you and your family members' appetite.
- Serve with crisps (chips) or tortilla chips.
Notes
While I love this combination of flavours, you can change up the sandwich to suit your leftovers. You can make layers of cooked ham, French cheeses like Brie or Camembert, adding cranberry sauce and salad leaves. Salami with cheese and sliced olives or tapenade would also be a delicious combination.
