Ingredients
  

  • Italian bread
  • sliced leftover turkey
  • leftover gravy
  • sliced cheese of choice
  • cranberry sauce
  • mayonnaise
  • leftover stuffing

Method
 

  1. Heat a panini press. If you do not have one, heat a skillet and use a second skillet to press the sandwich.
  2. Slice the bread in half and remove a little of the inside to make room for the fillings.
  3. Reheat the turkey in a little gravy. Reheat the stuffing in a toaster oven if you want to crisp it again.
  4. Spread mayonnaise and cranberry sauce on the inside of the bread. Add stuffing, cheese, and turkey.
  5. Press until the bread is golden and crisp and the cheese has melted.
