Holiday Leftovers Sandwich

Recipe by Blackbird Foods

Serves (At Least) 3 Sandwiches

INGREDIENTS:

• 1 box Blackbird Rosemary Garlic Seitan (8 oz)

• 6 Slices of Sturdy Bread (of your choice)

• 3 tablespoons Vegan Mayo

• 6 tablespoons Cranberry Sauce

• 1/2 cup Gravy*

• 1 cup Stuffing*

• 1 cup Mashed Potatoes*

• Oil or Butter for pan

*You can substitute these items with whatever Holiday leftovers you have! Leftovers may include Squash, Sweet Potatoes, Corn Casserole, Green Bean Casserole, or even Mac and Cheese.

METHOD:

1. Lightly toast the bread (only one side) in a pan with a bit of oil or butter.

2. While this is going, lightly pan fry Blackbird Rosemary Garlic Seitan in a pan with a bit of oil. Heat up the Gravy, Stuffing, Mashed Potatoes (or whatever leftovers you’ll be using).

3. Create an assembly line with the bread slices (toasted side face down). Spread 1/2 tablespoon of Mayo on each slice. Then spread 1 tablespoon of Cranberry Sauce on each slice.

4. Everything else will now only be added to one side of the sandwich (3 slices). Evenly spread 1/3 cup Stuffing and 1/3 cup Mashed Potatoes on each slice of bread. Add 1/3rd of the pan fried seitan next and then top with roughly 1/8 cup Gravy. Take the slice of bread with mayo and cranberry sauce and sandwich it on top.

5. Attempt to slice and enjoy!

6. Optional step: You can create your own “Moist Maker” like Ross did on Friends by soaking an extra piece of bread in gravy and adding it to the middle of your sandwich. I would put it between the stuffing and mashed potatoes.

NOTES:

• This sandwich cannot be assembled ahead of time. Hopefully you have all of the leftovers already made and you aren’t making everything from scratch for this sandwich!

• Blackbird Original Seitan would also work well.
