I had a similar chicken sandwich at a restaurant once and it inspired this wonderful way to use leftover turkey! My family likes it so much that I make sure that I get all of the ingredients for this every time we have turkey…or I am in trouble.
Stephanie's Turkey Melts
Ingredients
- 2 slices of bread I previously used a garlic sourdough bread - YUM! Now, I use my favorite GF bread and sprinkle just a bit of granulated garlic on with the pepper later in the assembly.
- leftover turkey
- 1 slice Swiss cheese make sure GF, if necessary
- mushrooms sliced and sauteed (I add minced garlic and pepper during the last 1-2 minutes)
- avocado sliced
- mayonnaise check for gluten, if needed - there are a few that aren't GF
- cracked pepper ground (optional)
Instructions
- Reheat leftover turkey with Swiss cheese over the top in microwave. Slice and saute the mushrooms.
- Layer each sandwich in the following order: slice of bread, layer of leftover turkey, Swiss cheese, and sauteed mushrooms. Spread a few thin slices of avocado on top. Cover the top slice of bread with mayonnaise and sprinkle with fresh ground pepper (if desired), and top the sandwich. Enjoy!
