Leftover Turkey Cranberry Sandwich With Goat Cheese

HAPPY THANKSGIVING!

happy-thanksgiving

I can’t believe another year has almost gone by. I want to wish everyone a wonderful Thanksgiving. Take the time to enjoy the moment with your friends and family. Forget about all the other crazy things going on in the process. That is my plan and I’m sticking to it!

And just because it is only Thanksgiving today..  I’ve already been preparing myself for the best part, LEFTOVERS! I love to make my leftovers into a sandwich. A few weeks ago my mom picked up a turkey breast already cooked. I’m usually a bit weary on something like that but wow I was super impressed. Not salty, good flavor, all white meat, and moist! Probably better then most turkeys I’ve had. I could only think of one thing and it was to make a delicious sandwich. I tweaked my sandwich by adding in fresh baby spinach and goat cheese. It looks festive and tastes delicious.

I think the most important part of this sandwich is the bread. You want a bread with nuts, seeds and whole grain goodness. I love Great Harvest for that reason. I was MMMing my whole way through this sandwich.

What is your favorite way to enjoy a leftover sandwich?

After Thanksgiving only follows the craziest shopping day ever. Black Friday! If I had a choice I’d hide in my closet on this day but since I work in retail, I get to enjoy the craziness. What is even crazier is I’m working from 10pm-7am.. because hello Old Navy opens at MIDNIGHT!!

Stay tune for a giveaway next week. I’m debating on what I want to actually do. I need to think quickly!!

Have a great Thanksgiving and don’t forget to be thankful. ;)

Love and Kisses,

Fallon

That looks so good! My favorite leftover sandwich: turkey + gravy + cranberry sauce and maybe a touch of stuffing.

Love the new look of your blog!! Still wish it had a Name/URL option in comments, though! hehe :)

I think the cranberry sauce/stuffing is what makes a good leftover sandwich. We had no stuffing this year =\

Jenn, you must show me what you are talking about. I tried looking at my comment settings and nothing mentioned Name/Url option.. unless I'm blind.
