Cranberry and Brie Leftover Sandwich

Utilize all your Thanksgiving leftovers for this cranberry and brie sandwich. The good food doesn't have to end on Thursday!
Prep Time 5 minutes
Cook Time 10 minutes
Total Time 15 minutes

Ingredients

  • 2 slices sourdough bread
  • 2 tbsp cranberry sauce/relish
  • 1 serving leftover turkey
  • brie cheese
  • 2 tbsp mayonnaise
  • 2 tbsp butter

Instructions

  • Build your sandwich by spreading the cranberry sauce on one piece of bread, then adding the turkey, and the brie on top (as much/little as you want). Place the second piece of bread over top to complete the sandwich
  • Next, take the mayonnaise and spread it on the outside of each piece of bread (yes, the outside. trust me). This is the secret to getting a golden brown crust. If you don't like mayonnaise, have no fear, you won't even taste it!
  • Then in a skillet or on a griddle, melt the butter over medium heat. Once the butter is melted, add the sandwhich to heat on one side. Check after 3-4 minutes and once golden brown, flip the sandwich. Do the same on the other side until golden brown and the cheese is melted.
  • There you have it, the easiest way to reduce waste and utilize allll those thanksgiving leftovers. Enjoy!
