Turkey Tuesday Times Three!

In keeping with this month's theme, today's Turkey Tuesday offering is an amazingly simple but flavorful sandwich.  My family loved it so much, we had it two nights in a row! Butterball is THE turkey company and their products do not disappoint.  These panini sandwiches combine their turkey tenderloin with deli ham, swiss cheese, sandwich pickles, and honey mustard on Cuban or French bread, grill 'em up and watch your family SWOON!  So simple, and so easy,  another recipe you'll want to file for after Thanksgiving leftovers.

Turkey Tuesday #3: The ULTIMATE Turkey Sandwich

One of my all-time favorite sandwiches is a turkey, cranberry sauce (MUST be whole berry), and brie sandwich.  When I discovered this recipe from Butterball Turkey, my heart skipped a beat.  It not only combines my favorite sandwich ingredients, but adds sliced green apple and Dijonnaise to the mix.  WOW was this a great sandwich!  With savory maple turkey, the spicy zip of Dijonnaise, sweet cranberry sauce, crisp and crunchy apples, and creamy brie, this is going in my favorites file.

For those that dislike leftover Thanksgiving turkey, this will change your mind.  Find the recipe here, along with the variation I made in the footnotes:

Turkey Tuesday Today!

Even though today's Wednesday and a day late, I like alliteration.  During September, I'm teaming with Butterball and Allrecipes to bring you some easy and DELICIOUS turkey recipes that you can make for yourself and family.  It's called "Turkeytarian Tuesdays" and you'll love it!

Today, I've made Mediterranean Turkey Pasta Salad.  If you like oil and vinegar dressings, fresh vegetables, and feta, you need to try it!  This is a recipe you can easily customize to suit your family's likes or dislikes.  I left out the red onion because it's not our favorite, but everything else is the same.

Isn't it pretty?  And, it's hearty enough to please the menfolk in your life.  I like win-win meals that everyone can eat together.  Not only is the salad super-easy, it's a great make-ahead meal that can be ready in about 30 minutes.  I plan on packing it for lunch tomorrow.

I did a little research on Butterball, and discovered that they are based in my home state of NC.  They offer so many products, and I look forward to sharing the ones I use in the coming weeks--some you are familiar with, others you may not be.  I used their precooked and smoked turkey breast to make this salad.  I wonder if they'd give me a tour if I showed up at their offices.........

Be sure to save this for Thanksgiving turkey leftovers--you'll look forward to this recipe!  Find the recipe here:  Mediterranean Turkey Pasta Salad
