Chef's Tips

For an extra crunch, toast the bread lightly before assembling the sandwich. You can also add a thin slice of apple for a different texture and flavor.

Easy Substitutions

Feel free to use chicken instead of turkey. Greek yogurt can be substituted for half of the mayonnaise for a lighter option. Walnuts or pecans can be added for extra crunch.

Storage & Reheating

Store the turkey salad mixture in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Assemble sandwiches just before eating to prevent the bread from getting soggy.
