Here's a bright, fresh lunch that's ideal if, perhaps, you've overindulged (and delicious even if you haven't). A bit of lemony mayonnaise binds together roast turkey, apples, celery, and raisins. You can also serve the mixture over greens instead of bread.

Writes Merrijane Rice from Bountiful, Utah, "Inspired by a delicious turkey salad sandwich at a local deli, I developed my own version to suit my family's tastes. Serve this on croissants for an elegant luncheon or on hearty whole-grain bread for a filling meal. Pre-cooked bacon and canned-or leftover-turkey make it a snap to prepare!"

Tips:

  • For the best results, use high-quality ingredients. Look for fresh, organic vegetables and herbs, and free-range turkey.
  • Don't overcook the turkey. Overcooked turkey will be dry and tough. Cook it until it reaches an internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Let the turkey cool completely before chopping it. This will help prevent the salad from becoming watery.
  • Use a sharp knife to chop the turkey and vegetables. This will help create even pieces and prevent the salad from becoming mushy.
  • Don't be afraid to experiment with different ingredients. You can add your favorite herbs, spices, and vegetables to the salad.
  • Serve the salad on your favorite bread or crackers. You can also enjoy it as a wrap or lettuce cup.

Conclusion:

Turkey salad sandwiches are a delicious and easy-to-make lunch or dinner option. They're perfect for picnics, potlucks, and busy weeknights. With so many different variations to choose from, there's sure to be a turkey salad sandwich recipe that everyone will enjoy.
