Let's be honest here - Thanksgiving is amazing - but we can't let the celebration come to a close after the big day.... let's make a Leftover Turkey Panini on Friday. Consider it fuel for Black Friday shopping. You're welcome.

Leftover Turkey PaniniI mean, what could I possibly say about this? Anything that involved grilled bread, melted brie cheese, pesto and leftover turkey meat is basically amazing. And then cranberry sauce on the side? Perfection!

I'll be whipping these up come Friday, doing a bit of black Friday online shopping and basking in a day off!! Happy Thanksgiving - hope you all have a lovely holiday and stuff yourself with delicious food.
