Prep time: 5 minutes
Cook Time: None
Total time: 5 minutes
Yield: 2 sandwiches
Ingredients
4 slices whole wheat bread
1/4 cup Mighty Maple peanut butter
2 tablespoons whole berry cranberry sauce (recipe for my homemade Cranberry-Cherry Sauce follows below)
1/4 cup sweet potato puree (bake a medium-sized sweet potato at 400°F for 1 hour, cool, peel, and puree; then measure out 1/4 cup)
4 slices leftover turkey breast (or 4 slices deli turkey meat or 4 slices poached chicken breast, cooled)
Procedure
1. Spread each of 2 slices of bread with 2 tablespoons Mighty Maple peanut butter.
2. Evenly distribute the sweet potato puree and cranberry sauce between the other 2 slices of bread.
3. Evenly divide the turkey (or chicken) between the peanut butter-covered bread slices. Top with the sweet potato and cranberry sauce-covered bread slices.
Cranberry-Cherry Sauce
Ingredients
4 cups frozen cherries
2 cups frozen cranberries
2 tablespoons pure maple syrup
1/4 cup dried cranberries
1/4 cup dried cherries
1 tablespoon arrowroot powder or cornstarch
1/4 teaspoon pure maple or vanilla extract
Procedure
1. Combine all ingredients in a large saucepan, stirring to mix.
2. Place on stove over medium-high heat until the fruit begins to sizzle, about 2 minutes.
3. Reduce stove heat to low and simmer until fruit breaks down and sauce has thickened, about 20 minutes, stirring often. If the cranberries need a little help breaking down, gently press with the back of a spoon until they burst.
4. Cool to room temperature and then chill in the refrigerator until cold.

a slice of aged cheddar cheese
I would add some deviled egg!

Know I’m really ready for a turky sandwich. It is the only way I eat my Thanksgiving turkey. Funny!!! That looks so yummy I am going to try that!!!!
I actually believe I would add some marshmallow creme to this sandwich, because it would go well with the sweet potatoes and cranberry sauce and give the turkey a sweet satisfying taste, plus it will taste great with the Mighty Maple PB. Yum!
Very interesting take on the gobbler, which is also a favorite of mine! But mine must have stuffing, which is really weird since it’s bread inside bread, lol!!
I think a thin slice of cheddar or swiss would go good. 🙂
Stuffing was my first choice. But I would consider adding some chopped walnuts or some aged cheddar cheese.

Bacon N lettuce- it would give it more yummy crunch!!! not being a sweet potatoe fan it still would be YUMMY!!!!!!!!!!! Also a slice of provolone cheese
veganize it! take out the turkey and add some crisp apples and chopped up vegan pumpkin pie!
I think it sounds fabulous! I would add apple chips or chopped pecans for crunch!
I think this sandwich sounds really interesting but since I am vegan I would definitely add leftover tofurky instead or add in banana slices with a dash of cinnamon.
