My attempt to take advantage of the “Black Friday” sale was very successful..This is probably the first year I started my Christmas shopping this early…I bought one gift for my hubbie, one for a friend, and about ten for me..as I said very successful….So successful, my hubbie had to meet me at the mall to help me carry my bags to my car……..
After all that exercising (walking is exercising, isn’t it?)..I was famished, so I came home and treated myself to a delicious turkey sandwich…..I had lots of plans for this sandwich…like also adding mayo, some left over gravy over the turkey, crisp bacon and swiss cheese and smothering it with butter and grilling it until the cheese melted…and begged for mercy….but I was hungry..and desperate times call for desperate measures…and the “measure” here was simplicity..minimalism..and the combination of simple ingredients hit the spot…
I sliced the homemade bread, retrieved the turkey slices I had “secured” on Thanksgiving after I carved the turkey…[as I said I had lots of plans!]….and assembled the other ingredients…..
Then I smothered the bread with butter….
and added a generous serving of left over, homemade cranberry relish..
added turkey, some(OK A LOT of) hot sauce I made with habaneros a day earlier….
I like it really, really hot, baby!!!!!![note to self–calm down Ria..]
then some baby arugula to make it “healthy”….notice that everything is in moderation…because I felt soooooo guilty from the gluttony the day before…..on a normal day I would “double up” everything….except the green stuff…..
I loved it! Sweet, Tangy, Spicy, Delicious….!!!
How do you make your day after Thanksgiving sandwich????
Thanks for stopping by,
Assembling with love…and hunger,
Ria
