Ingredients

  • 2 slices sourdough bread
  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • ½ cup sliced turkey
  • 2 slices cooked bacon
  • 3 slices whole milk Mozzarella
  • ¼ cup shredded white cheddar
  • ¼ cup stuffing
  • ¼ cup roasted vegetables

Cranberry Mayo

  • 1 tablespoon cranberry sauce
  • 2 tablespoon mayo

Instructions

  • Toast the Bread: Melt the butter in a medium sized skillet and lightly toast both pieces of bread until just lightly golden. 
  • Cheese the Turkey: Preheat the broiler in your oven. Place the shredded Tillamook Sharp White Cheddar Cheese on top of the leftover turkey and transfer to the broiler (or microwave) to melt the cheese. Remove. 
  • Assemble the Sandwich: Spread cranberry mayo on one side of each slice of sourdough. Layer on turkey with Sharp White Cheddar, bacon, sliced mozzarella. Add stuffing and roasted veggies for that perfect leftover flavor boost.
  • Grill It Up: Heat a panini press or skillet over medium heat. Place the assembled sandwich in the skillet and press down gently. Cook for about 3-4 minutes per side, or until the bread is golden brown and the cheese is melty.
  • Slice and Serve: Once it’s grilled to perfection, slice in half and enjoy every bite of your Thanksgiving feast, all over again!
