Clarksville, TN – For Thanksgiving, did you roast a huge turkey? Do you like turkey but get just a little tired of re-runs? Here’s a great recipe for leftover turkey.
I made Panini tonight and my daughter said, “I knew you would be making those …Yay!” Panini works best with a crusty, sturdy bread but you can use any bread you have on hand.
Use your imagination and add ingredients to the Panini that you like.
Turkey Panini
You’ll need:
- Cooked turkey
- Crusty bread like foccacia or ciabatta
- Olive oil and butter
- Swiss cheese
- Cranberry relish, not the jello salad kind
- Arugula or baby spinach
- Brown or dijon mustard
For each sandwich spread one slice of bread with mustard. Add a slice of swiss cheese and spread cranberry relish over it. Top with a layer of cooked turkey and a layer of arugula or spinach, finish off with the final slice of bread.
Paint the bread with a mixture of melted butter and olive oil. Grill in a hot skillet or electric grill until golden brown and toasty. Serve hot.
