Notes
- Warm ingredients separately: Heating each layer individually ensures even warmth throughout the sandwich and avoids soggy bread.
- Use hearty bread: Softer sandwich bread can get soggy, use something sturdy, especially if adding warm gravy.
- Customize to your leftovers: Add green beans, roasted vegetables, or a slice of cheese if you have extras to use up.
- Press gently before slicing: This helps hold everything together and prevents the fillings from sliding out.
- Serve with extra gravy: For a dip-style experience, serve warm turkey gravy on the side for dunking, like a holiday take on a French dip.
- Make it open-faced: Serve on a single slice of toasted bread and pile on the toppings for a fork-and-knife version.
