Every year I enjoy making a batch of these dainty little tea sandwiches with leftover turkey for a light, casual lunch in the days that follow the big feast!

1/3 cup sliced almonds, lightly toasted

topmost, thin pieces and leaves) minced

Makes approx. 40 tea sandwiches
To a medium bowl, add turkey, mayonnaise, celery, and sesame oil. Crush almonds in your palm and add to bowl. Stir to combine. Add salt and pepper to taste.
Place
a small scoop of turkey salad on a slice of soft sandwich bread. Top with another slice of bread, lightly
press, then remove crusts. Cut into
quarters diagonally. Using a butter
knife, spread a thin layer of light mayonnaise along one side of each little
sandwich. Then dip that side into a bowl
of toasted sesame seeds.
Serve.
Awesome! It's so easy to get tired of the standard turkey leftover recipes. This is simple but WAY different. I love tea sandwiches!
