CONFETTI TURKEY SALAD SANDWICH

CONFETTI TURKEY SALAD SANDWICH

According to our research, turkey is a lunch-time hit with kids.

This salad recipe starts with roasted turkey leftovers or a 3/4-inch-thick slice purchased from the delicatessen section at the grocery store.

The flavorful punch comes from crunchy fresh vegetables and dried sweetened cranberries.

Ingredients


2 cups (about 3/4 pound) cooked turkey
1 green or yellow pepper, seeded and diced
1 small carrot, peeled and shredded
1 stalk celery, chopped
2 scallions, minced (optional)
1/3 cup dried sweetened cranberries
1/3 to 1/2 cup mayonnaise
6 sandwich rolls

Directions


Remove the skin from the turkey and cut the meat into 1/2-inch cubes. In a large bowl, toss the turkey, pepper, carrot, celery, scallions and cranberries. Stir in just enough mayonnaise to hold the mixture together.

Slice the sandwich rolls in half and hollow out a portion of each center to keep the turkey salad from spilling out of the sandwiches. Makes 4 1/2 cups, enough for six sandwiches.
