I turned the classic combination of tomato, basil, and mozzarella into an easy and hearty sandwich. Balsamic mayonnaise makes this recipe stand out. The bold flavor of balsamic vinaigrette in a creamy base of mayo. It’s a winning flavor profile, and you’ll want to smear it on every sandwich you make!
Honestly, I enjoy leftovers from holiday meals more than the meal itself. Maybe it’s the relatives and having cooked for two days that deter my enthusiasm for the actual holiday meal, or maybe it’s because there are so many fun ways to eat leftover turkey!
Maybe it’s a little of both….
Leftover Turkey Bruschetta Slider with Balsamic Mayonnaise is a tall ‘Dagwood’ style sandwich with layers and layers of goodness. Flavorful turkey is the foundation. Mozzarella cheese is piled on top with a salad mix of lettuce, tomato, and the real star, Balsamic Mayonnaise.
It has the classic flavor profile of bruschetta or Caprese but is hearty and filling with the addition of turkey.

First, you can use leftover whole turkey, smoked turkey breast, or any turkey or chicken you have.
Additionally, this sandwich will be great with Havarti, provolone, mozzarella, or any mild, creamy cheese. Use your favorite or whatever you have on hand.
I always keep Balsamic Reduction for salads and fruit, which I used to make the Balsamic Mayo. Read this post for the balsamic reduction recipe.
