Ingredients

Scale

Bread and Spread

  • 2 slices bread of choice
  • 2 tablespoons mayonnaise

Cheese and Vegetables

  • 1 slice provolone cheese
  • 1 leaf lettuce
  • 2-3 slices red onion

Meat and Toppings

  • 2-3 oz sliced turkey
  • 2 tablespoons cranberry sauce


Instructions

  1. Prepare the Bread: Spread the mayonnaise evenly on one side of each slice of bread to create a creamy base for the sandwich.
  2. Add Cheese and Vegetables: Place one slice of provolone cheese on one slice of the bread. Then layer the leaf of lettuce on top of the cheese, followed by 2 to 3 slices of red onion for a fresh crunch and mild bite.
  3. Assemble Turkey and Cranberry: Carefully stack the sliced turkey on top of the vegetables. Add a dollop of cranberry sauce over the turkey for a sweet and tangy contrast.

Notes

  • Use whole grain or sourdough bread for added texture and flavor.
  • If you prefer, substitute provolone cheese with Swiss or cheddar.
  • For extra crunch, add tomato slices or cucumber.
  • Keep cranberry sauce chilled until assembly for best taste.
  • This sandwich is best enjoyed fresh but can be wrapped and refrigerated for up to 24 hours.
