My favorite part of Thanksgiving is this sandwich I get to make with all the leftovers in my fridge the next day. I make myself a huge open face Thanksgiving meal sandwich using everything from turkey, stuffing, mashed potatoes, gravy, peas, and cranberry sauce. Try making this gigantic Thanksgiving Turkey Sandwich (if you're still not totally stuffed from making all the other recipes)!

Hope you all have a happy, loving, and delicious Thanksgiving!
