If you're wondering what to do in 48 hours when you're left with pounds of leftovers, or just looking for something simple, versatile and really good to bring your lunch game to the next level, try this: Turkey or chicken salad sandwich, with all the fixings of a complete fall feast.
To prepare, shred or cube leftover roasted poultry, mix with a bit of mayo (we use a vegan version), and a small amount of Dijon mustard (1/2 a teaspoon, or so, for one sandwich), and stir until well combined.
Toss in crunchy celery chunks and a handful of dried cranberries, and pile on to whole grain or whole wheat sourdough toast, with a layer of thinly sliced apples for some extra acidy, juiciness and crunch.
If you like apples, you probably have your own favorite varieties, but if you're looking for suggestions, try a Piñata red, a Honey Crisp, or a green Granny Smith. Asian pear slices also work really well and add a nice twist. 
You may never look at a bird, or your lunch bag, the same way again.

A turkey sandwich is not what I want to eat so early in the morning. If you ask me, breakfast is supposed to be filled with light meals, not something like this. If you do not take proper care of what you eat, then your body will eventually rot. I know that it sounds horrible, but believe me, it is the truth. Please go and take more care of your body, stop eating such heavy meals too early in the morning.

    About the Author

    I'm Lorraine Allen, and when our daughter was diagnosed with multiple severe food allergies in infancy, a decade ago, I decided to freelance from home so that I could also care and cook for her. Because I grew up all around the world, it's important to me that she be able to enjoy all sorts of international food.  I've learned, throughout this process, that even a large number of severe allergies and restrictions does not stop a person from eating well. On the contrary, by forcing us to focus so much attention on what we consume, we've gained a whole new appreciation for good food, and ironically, we all enjoy a healthier diet than before this diagnosis. This site is where we share some of our delicious egg-free, nut-free, shellfish-free (and often vegan and gluten-free) experiments and successes in the kitchen. Guten Appetit and thanks for reading!
