Leftover Turkey Sandwich
Here's a yummy way to eat your leftover turkey. Take a couple slices of gluten free Nutty Bread, lettuce, mustard and voilà, you have a delicious post-Thanksgiving meal in a sandwich. Personally, I would throw some leftover Cranberry Sauce on the side to add a little hit of color and flavor.
By the way, the turkey in the photo above is not turkey from Thanksgiving, it is a leftover photo using organic Applegate Farms turkey.
Leftover Gluten Free Turkey Sandwich
2 thin slices Nutty Bread
smear of Dijon mustard
2 pieces Romaine lettuce
2-3 slices leftover turkey, sliced
- Toast bread, then smear with mustard
- Place lettuce on bread, then turkey slices
- Close sandwich and eat
If you're tiring of turkey sandwiches another great leftover idea is my Turkey Chili which was recommended in a great little write up over at Slashfood.
In other news, I got some Thanksgiving buzz from The Denver Post. They published an article entitled "50 last-minute ideas guaranteed to shake up Thanksgiving". It features my gluten free Pear Crisp from The Gluten-Free Almond Flour Cookbook, along with the recipe itself. So head on over to the Denver Post online for my Pear Crisp recipe for free!

I made the pumpkin pie from your cookbook and the whole family loved it. It was as good or better than any other pie made with dairy! Thanks Elana:)
Happy belated thanksgiving! :)
On my faaaaavorite bread!
Also - pumpkin cheesecake was a big hit with the crowd.
I made the chicken pot pie from your new cookbook last night, and we were astonished by its creamy, crusted deliciousness. We've already eaten the leftovers, and I was tempted to make it again for dinner. I'll show some restraint, though, and wait a couple days.
Your cookbook has renewed my enthusiasm for cooking, an enthusiasm that had been dampened by a long list of food intolerances.
I purchased four of the books, only to find that two of the people I was getting them for had purchased their own copies as well as copies for me. So we have a lot of them floating around, but they'll find homes easily.
The book is beautiful--such nice paper, colours and photos.
Thanks for your great work. Your recipes always lead to delicious ends!
Hello Elana! I know you are super busy....but if you know of any MS research foundations that are doing research on MS using alternative medicines can you email me their name/info? (Or anyone else who might know of one.) My aunt passed away from MS a year ago and left me some money and I'd like to donate it to a good cause. (Goodness....that sounds like a bad email chain letter! Promise it's true! I'm just having problems finding such a foundation through internet searches.) Thanks so much! --Annette Email: ahibbie (at) gmail (dot) com

Hi Annette,
What a great question. I don't know of any organizations doing alternative MS research. Let's stay in touch though and please let me know if you find one --I'll let you know if I do too.
Thanks,
Elana
