This recipe makes a hot, delicious sandwich from the days leftovers with a Thanksgiving taste! Super good with a cool beer and a movie.

Ingredients

  • 1 loaf French bread
  • 4 tablespoons margarine
  • 8 ounces sliced deli turkey meat
  • 8 slices provolone cheese
  • 8 slices precooked bacon
  • 4 tablespoons mayonnaise
  • 4 tablespoons jellied cranberry sauce
  • 8 slices fresh tomatoes
  • 4 lettuce leaves

Directions

  • Step 1 Preheat the oven broiler.
  • Step 2 Cut the bread into four pieces, and split lengthwise almost all the way through for four sandwiches. Spread margarine on the inside of each piece. Place on a baking sheet, cut side up.
  • Step 3 Toast bread under preheated broiler until lightly browned, 1 to 2 minutes. Remove pan from the oven.
  • Step 4 Layer 4 pieces of bread with 2 slices each of the turkey, cheese, and bacon. Remove the remaining 4 slices of bread from the baking sheet and reserve for sandwich tops. Cool bread slightly, and spread mayonnaise onto the cut side of each of the 4 top slices.
  • Step 5 Place the bread with turkey and cheese under the broiler just until the cheese melts, about 1 minute. Remove from the broiler, and spread 1 tablespoon cranberry sauce over each sandwich. Layer with the tomatoes and lettuce. Place a top bread slice over each half, and serve.

Cook’s Tip

Substitute leftover sliced Thanksgiving turkey for the deli variety to give this sandwich even more seasonal flavor.
