First, you have to mix the mayo with leftover cranberry relish, and spread it onto both sides of your bread.
If you haven’t tried my cranberry relish recipe, than you have to! It’s so good and is my daughters favorite thing on our holiday table every year.
Now, lay your smoked Gouda, bacon and thinly sliced turkey breast onto one half, and top it with shredded romaine and whatever other veggies you like.
Or none.
That’s my husband’s jam. #nojudgement
…and oooh and ahh over your glorious creation.
Okay, not really…but put the top on take a big bite.
Sweet, tangy, savory oh my…It IS the ultimate Thanksgiving leftover turkey sandwich!

It’s got to be toasted for me and some stuffing in there, too! I am going to steal your mayo/cranberry mix idea, though.
