Turkey Cranwiches
"This is from an old Betty Crocker holiday cookbook that I have, dated 1996. It's delicious and a nice change of pace as far as sandwiches go. I was unable to find cranberry-orange sauce so I used whole berry cranberry sauce instead. I also just use turkey lunch meat."

Absolutely delicious! Definitely a keeper. I used pepper Jack cheese, deli turkey slices, cracked wheat bread and because the grocery didn't have cran/orange relish, I found recipe #179023 to whip up the night before (highly recommended) and these sammies were a huge hit! The cranberry is sweet, the burst of flavor from the orange is refreshing and then the pepper Jack added some heat. DH & DD (3) ate their sammies without cheese (allergies) but both "gobbled" them down in a hurry anyway! Thanks for sharing this recipe, KeeperAtHome! Made & enjoyed for Spring 2010 Pick A Chef. You've been adopted! :) http://www.recipezaar.com/bb/viewtopic.zsp?t=327498&postdays=0&postorder=asc&start=0
