How to Make Turkey Croissants With Cranberry Salsa

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) for 5 minutes if using store-bought croissants that need warming. Otherwise, skip this step.
  2. Slice croissants in half lengthwise.
  3. Spread 2 tablespoons of cranberry sauce on one half of each croissant.
  4. Spread 1 tablespoon of mayonnaise on the other half of each croissant.
  5. Layer 1/4 cup of thinly sliced turkey breast onto the cranberry sauce-covered croissant halves.
  6. Top with 1 slice of cheese (e.g., cheddar, Swiss, provolone), 2-3 leaves of lettuce, and 2-3 slices of tomato.
  7. Carefully place the other croissant half on top to create a sandwich.
  8. Cut each sandwich in half diagonally and serve immediately. Enjoy!
