Tips

This recipe is great for leftovers! Make extra sandwiches and save them for quick lunches throughout the week.

If you have leftover turkey from a meal you can use that instead of deli turkey.

If you want an extra pop of color, sprinkle some fresh parsley on top of your sandwiches.

Do not over-bake or the turkey will dry out. You can also broil sandwiches for a couple of seconds if they are not golden brown enough.

Substitutions and Variations

• Poppy Seeds – If you are allergic to poppy seeds or do not like them leave them off.
• Hawaiian Rolls – If you prefer a savory bun instead of the sweet get regular slider buns or the butter rolls.
• Spicy – Not a fan of spice? Use dijon or regular mustard instead of spicy mustard.
• Cheese – This recipe is great with any cheese, but feel free to leave it out completely if you prefer.
• Vegetarian – Skip the turkey and use vegetarian crumbles instead.
