This Leftover Turkey Waldorf Sandwich is spectacular! It’s nice and crunchy and the subtle flavor of the turkey really allows the apple to stand out.
A typical Waldorf salad usually contains chopped apples, celery, and walnuts in a mayonnaise dressing and is served as a side dish.
This sandwich takes the salad, adds leftover turkey and puts the results between two pieces of bread to make a wonderful and different sandwich. A great way to use up leftover Thanksgiving turkey!
I made mine into a wrap with whole wheat tortillas and I felt like I was having lunch at a trendy restaurant.
If you didn’t have turkey for Thanksgiving this sandwich is worth buying a rotisserie chicken and using the shredded chicken breast.
You can also flavor this recipe as you’d like. Try using honey mustard, or yogurt or just more mayonnaise.
Herbs that would be delicious in the sandwich are thyme, tarragon, and basil. You could also throw in some raisins or dried cranberries.
A great way to break the lunchtime blahs!
Very yummy! I definitely will make it again.
