OPEN-FACED TURKEY SANDWICH WITH MUSHROOM GRAVY

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Melt butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add shallot and thyme; cook until translucent, about 2 minutes. Add mushrooms; saute until they release liquid and are soft, 3 to 5 minutes. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper. Add Madeira, raise heat to high, and saute until liquid is cooked away, 3 to 5 minutes. Add gravy; cook until thick enough to coat the back of a spoon.
• Meanwhile, slice turkey into about 1/4-inch-thick slices, and add to the gravy. Heat until turkey is hot, about 1 minute. Toast bread under the broiler on both sides until golden but still soft.
• Place toast on serving plates, spoon 1 or 2 tablespoons gravy over toast, and scatter watercress on top. Arrange turkey over toast, and spoon mushrooms and gravy over meat. Serve warm.

STUFFING WAFFLE OPEN-FACED LEFTOVER TURKEY SANDWICH (AKA THE GREATEST LEFTOVER THANKSGIVING SANDWICH IN THE WORLD OF ALL TIME)

Steps:

• Preheat a waffle iron. I use a mini, round waffle maker, that works best for stacking.
• In a large mixing bowl, add 1/2 cup of the stock to the stuffing at a time until the mixture is wet but not liquid; it should have the consistency of meatball mix and should be able to be rolled into a ball.
• Lightly oil or spray a waffle iron and, depending on shape/size of mold, place a nice-size disc of wet stuffing onto the hot waffle iron. Cook until golden brown and crispy, 5 to 6 minutes. Remove and repeat if leftover stuffing mix remains.
• Heat the gravy in a small saucepot. Take off the heat and place slices of the cold turkey in the hot gravy to reheat and rehydrate.
• Make a tower with a layer of the stuffing waffle schmeared with cranberry sauce. Top with a couple slices of warm gravy-kissed turkey, then a nice sprinkling of crispy bacon. Top with a single sunny-side up egg and garnish with the crispy sage, sea salt and cracked black pepper.

OPEN-FACED TURKEY/GRAVY WITH MUSHROOMS SANDWICH

Steps:

• 1. Heat EVOO in sautè pan and add onion and celery. Sautè until tender, add garlic and sautè another minute or so until garlic is tender, being careful not to burn garlic or it will become bitter. While cooking onion mixture, heat gravy in a saucepan. Add onion mixture when done, add mushrooms, Worcestershire, Italian seasoning, a couple of splashes of lemon juice, black pepper, heat slowly. In the same sautè pan, slowly warm turkey breast. Slice open deli rolls on serving plate, add turkey, place Provolone cheese atop sliced turkey and pour gravy mixture over all. (We like to then warm ours in the microwave about 45 seconds to melt the cheese and soften the rolls.) It's also great with some leftover cranberry sauce on top. NOTE: We also like this sandwich made with roast beef and brown gravy. Either kind of sandwich is great with toasted ravioli, fries, chips or whatever you choose.
