Ingredients
  

  • 4 slices whole-grain sandwich bread
  • 8 oz chilled leftover roast turkey skin removed and cut into 1/4-inch pieces
  • 1/2 small crisp red-skinned apple cored and finely diced
  • 1 small celery stalk finely diced
  • 2 tbsp chopped pecans
  • 3 tbsp plain Greek yogurt
  • 1 tbsp mayonnaise
  • 1 tsp Dijon mustard
  • 1 tsp fresh lemon juice
  • 1/8 tsp fine salt
  • 1/8 tsp black pepper
  • 2 large lettuce leaves washed and dried

Method
 

  1. Toast pecans in a dry skillet over medium-low heat for 3 to 4 minutes until fragrant, stirring often. Transfer to a plate and cool for 3 minutes.
  2. Mix yogurt, mayonnaise, Dijon, lemon juice, salt and pepper in a bowl until smooth.
  3. Fold in chopped turkey, apple, celery and cooled pecans until lightly coated without crushing the meat.
  4. Place dry lettuce on 2 bread slices. Divide turkey salad evenly over it, spreading level and close to the edges.
  5. Close with remaining bread, press gently and cut each sandwich in half before serving cold.
