Who knew that the best Thanksgiving Leftovers Sandwich would be the best part of our Thanksgiving weekend. The leftover’s sandwich is coming in a close second to the stuffing waffles with poached egg that we enjoyed for brunch, but the family votes have been tallied and the no surprise winner was the stuffed biscuit sandwich with turkey, stuffing, green beans, carrots bacon and jam.
We gave this recipe some loving care by cooking the bacon bundles in a skillet before warming the turkey slices in the bacon drippings and then frying up the stuffing to a toasty golden brown.
The cranberry sauce had all been devoured Thursday night, so we substituted some fresh raspberry preserves and then a swipe of mayo as the sandwich moistener.
The best Thanksgiving Leftovers Sandwich all rested between a toasted layered biscuit. Just the perfect sandwich vehicle in my view.
