We are almost done with our turkey leftovers. I absolutely hate food waste, so I'm trying to be as creative as possible with this leftover meat. On Thanksgiving day, once the carved turkey cooled and no one else was interested in any more, my husband took one whole breast, sealed it in a food-saver bag, and froze it. This week we thought was as good a time as ever to break it out. I took a quarter of the meat and decided turkey salad sounded like a good idea. The weather has been oddly warm lately, and a cold sandwich just sounded really good the other day.
Ingredients:
- Turkey, chopped or shredded (as much as you want for your sandwiches)
- Celery, a couple finely diced ribs
- Onion, finely diced (I usually use green onions, but all I had was red and it was great!)
- Mayo
- Salt
- Pepper
Just mix all that stuff up. Use as much of each ingredient as you like. Taste it as you mix it up so you get the flavors that you prefer. Spread it on your favorite bread, and you've got a Turkey Salad Sandwich going!
Sometimes when I'm feeling sassy, I'll dice up a dill pickle and throw that in too!
