Partake in our recipe for turkey enchiladas and a "hot brown" sandwich, which was originally created by Chef Fred K. Schmidt in Louisville, Kentucky, using your Thanksgiving leftovers.

Having pleased large crowds since the 1920s with this creation, we suggest you give his egg and turkey creation a try!

Ingredients

3 ounces turkey breast, roasted, sliced
1 slice toasted white bread
2 slices tomato
2 slices bacon, cooked and drained
Cream Sauce

2 ounces butter
3 ounces four
3/4 cup cream
1/4 cup milk
1/2 cup Swiss cheese, grated
salt and pepper to taste

Directions

Heat butter and add flour. Whisk and slowly cook for 5 minutes. Whisk in cream and milk and heat. Whisk in cheese until melted. Season. Simmer for 30 minutes. Sauce should be very thick.

Quarter toast and place in an oven safe dish. Top with turkey and tomatoes. Cover well with sauce. Bake at 400° for 10 minutes. Garnish with bacon.
