Cranberry Cheddar Turkey Snacks Recipes

CRANBERRY-CHEDDAR TURKEY SNACKS

Steps:

• Top crackers with remaining ingredients.

CRANBERRY GLAZED TURKEY

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F. Remove giblets and neck from turkey and rinse inside and out with cold water. Pat dry with paper towels; set aside.
• In a small bowl, combine softened butter, 1 tablespoon fine herbs, crushed garlic, 2 tablespoons marmalade and onion flakes. Use a fork to mix together until well combined.
• In a small bowl combine poultry seasoning, 1 tablespoon fine herbs, salt and pepper.
• Use your hand to carefully loosen the skin around the entire bird. Work half of the butter mixture under the skin of the entire turkey. Rub the remaining butter on the outside of the skin and season with the poultry seasoning mixture inside and out. Stuff the inside of the turkey cavity with oranges and leeks. (Truss if desired.) Add any leftover oranges and leeks to a shallow roasting pan; pour in broth and set aside. Insert a pop-up thermometer at an angle about 3-inches down from the neck cavity and 2-inches from the breastbone, in the thickest part of the breast. Place turkey breast side up on a rack over the vegetables in the roasting pan. Place in oven and reduce temperature to 325 degrees F.
• Combine orange juice, remaining marmalade, jellied cranberries, and remaining fine herbs in a small saucepan and simmer until jelly melts. Continue simmering until mixture thickens, about 15 minutes; keep warm.
• After the turkey has cooked for 2 hours brush on the glaze mixture. When the thermometer pops up or until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thigh registers 180 degrees F, about 3 hours total.
• Remove from oven and let turkey rest 15 minutes before carving.

TURKEY, CHEDDAR, AND CRANBERRY MELT

Steps:

• Assemble each sandwich: spread ½ teaspoon butter on 1 side of each bread slice; place bread, butter side down on a clean work suface.
• Swipe 1 side of 1 slice with 2 tablespoons cranberry sauce; top with 2 slices of cheese and 2 slices turkey; close sandwich with remaining slice of bread, butter side up.
• Melt 1 tablespoon butter in a skillet over medium heat; place sandwich on the heat for 2 minutes.
• Using a spatula, flip the sandwich and heat for 2 minutes more; both sides of bread should be lightly toasted.
• Repeat with remaining sandwiches, adding butter to the pan as needed.

CHEDDAR, TURKEY AND CRANBERRY ON SOURDOUGH

Steps:

• Spread 1 1/2 tablespoons of cranberry sauce on each of 4 slices of bread. Add 2 ounces of cheddar onto each piece, followed by two ounces of roasted turkey.
• Cover each prepared bread slice and evenly butter the top of each sandwich. Place each sandwich butter side down in a frying pan over medium heat. While the first side is grilling, butter the second side of bread. Cook until golden and crusty, about 3-4 minutes. Carefully turn and cook until second side is golden, about 2-3 minutes more.
