Do you suffer over what to do with Thanksgiving leftovers? They are great the first day or two after Thanksgiving, but a bit boring after that! Turn them into marvelous sandwiches. This article can help: Thanksgiving Sandwich Ideas for Turkey and Ham

I'm having a grilled ham and cheese for breakfast. Sourdough bread makes great grilled sandwiches.
You don't have to save your sandwiches for lunch and dinner. Have one for breakfast!

Here is a recipe for mango mayo. It works well on turkey.
2 tablespoons of your favorite mayonnaise 1 tablespoon of Patek�s Sweet Mango Chutney (You may substitute your favorite mango chutney.) 1 tablespoon of Grey Poupon�s Creamy Dijon (No substitutions, please.)
Mix together and store covered in the refrigerator.

Hi Connie,
As usual I got a lot of info and pleasure reading your article on leftover sandwich combination ideas so thank you v v much.
One thing I can add that interest others is a Turkey Pate that I make on the run that works so easily and quickly and lays itself open to your imagination as to what to do with it and where to put it except of course when it comes to taking off the presentation platter!
You take what you have got by way of breast or leg meat and strip it up (no skin). Add some (pref) home made vinaigrette or mayonnaise (can be flavoured) or just plain lemon juice with a touch of olive oil. GRATE an onion or two into the mix.
Use a pestle and mortar make a paste and therefore a pate of this mix and use as a spread for all sorts of reasons or as a base to biscuit snacks for a cocktail party or eat as a pate with melba toasties or or or ...
For contrast use capers or bits of salted anchovies, or slices of pickled gherkins or slices of rosa cherry tomatoes or scattered mixed chopped herbs (parsely frills only no stalks, basil and lemon thyme is a nice mix I often go for) or thinly sliced or finely chopped hard boild egg or or or...
I have also used my turkey (and chicken) pate and mixed with egg yolk to restuff eggs for cocktail party meals etc.
As a 'butter' style base or even filling/spread for plain skinny sandwiches made on crispy or crusted white bread, it goes far and is very tasty with some extra salt and white pepper.
And the look, flavour, texture and taste is up to you, your imagination and how much of the turkey you have left over.
Easy peasy and tasty and frugal and fun!
Donchayluvitall?
Cheers
P S Now put on your shopping list or in your letters to Santa that you would like to get a pestle and mortar as a cooks present this year please. I have tried to make this pate using a blender - it doesn't work for some reason, it goes all glutinous and yucky? And if you have already got a PM in your kitchen, get another one that is bigger and made of seasoned wood - then see the difference!

Thanks for the recipe, Lestie. It sounds delicious and unique. I love duck pate, not necessarily the chicken liver type, and this turkey pate is sure to be a winner. Wouldn't it be a fun thing to host a Thanksgiving leftover party and encourage everyone to bring a *new* and creative dish made with their leftovers? This turkey pate would be a hit! I'm a sucker for the traditional leftover turkey sandwiches on toast. We look forward to them every year. Nothing special but oh, so good.

Here is my recipe for a Japanese Turkey Korroke. I have since improved upon it by omitting the egg and flour in the mashed potato mixture and letting it firm up in the refrigerator. This omission leaves the interior more fluffy and potato-y. The breading process holds the chilled and molded patties together well enough. Just be sure not to flip them over until the underside is browned or the patty can fall apart! Japanese Turkey Korroke
