Ingredients

  • 2 slices bread
  • turkey or chicken leftovers work great for this!
  • cranberry sauce
  • Stuffing (optional)
  • 1 tbsp cream cheese (softened)
  • 1 tbsp mayo
  • 1 tsp butter

Instructions

  • Spread a light coat of mayo on each slice of bread.
  • One one side, spread the softened cream cheese. On the other side pile on some stuffing (if you're using it) and press it down.
  • Spread cranberry sauce on top of the cream cheese. I like a lot, but you can use less if you want. Press sliced turkey or chicken onto stuffing.
  • Assemble sandwich. Heat a frying pan over medium-low heat and melt 1/2 a teaspoon of butter in it. Place sandwich on the melted butter and butter the top half.
  • Cook slowly until the bottom is golden brown, then flip and cook the other side until it's brown and the middle is warmed and deliciously melty.
  • Serve hot and enjoy! :)
