Give leftover turkey a Mediterranean twist by adding sun dried tomatoes and fresh rosemary in this delicious turkey salad.
I wanted to make a different type of salad using the rest of the turkey I had left. And since it was Sunday and I needed some ideas for lunches the next day, turkey salad it was. There is only one mayo I serve in this house and for us, it's Hellmann's or nothing!
I've tried the other brands and they're too "salad dressing" like. I also use the regular brand, not the light. We don't eat a lot of mayonnaise so if I am going to make a salad with one, I'm going to use the real deal.
How do you make Sun Dried Tomato Turkey Salad?
For this recipe you'll need cooked turkey breast, celery, fresh rosemary, sun dried tomatoes, mayonnaise, Kosher salt and black pepper. I usually use leftover roasted turkey, but you can purchase a piece of the store made turkey breast at your local deli counter.
Start by dicing the turkey into bite sized pieces and place them in a bowl with the remaining ingredients. Mix well and serve over a bed of lettuce and tomato or make a sandwich on your favorite bread.
