Today I am breathing a sigh of contentment. One more fantastic Thanksgiving is behind us. We spent two full days cooking, eating, and visiting with friends. As we went around the table on Thursday, listing the things that we were most thankful for, our four year old guest stated that he was thankful for chocolate cake. This is a boy who takes joy in the simple pleasures of life!
This weekend I am thankful to be taking a break from serious cooking. We will do our best to eat up the leftover potatoes, green beans, corn, and cranberry salad. And, we will definitely be enjoying this Leftover Turkey Salad. It can be served in multiple ways, as a salad or a sandwich, hot or cold.
Leftover Turkey Salad
2 cups chopped leftover turkey
1 ½ cups grated Swiss cheese
½ cup sliced celery
½ cup dried cranberries
2/3 cup mayonnaise
2 tbsp. mustard (any kind will do)
Salt and pepper to taste
In a large bowl, combine all ingredients. Stir well. Use as a filling for cold sandwiches, grilled sandwiches, Panini; or, as a topping for broiled open-face sandwiches. It is also good on a bed of salad greens.
