Thanksgiving Leftovers Sandwiches

roasted Brussels sprouts, mashed sweet potato, sage mayo

We took the best flavors from Thanksgiving dinner and combined them in one perfect sandwich: roasted Brussels sprouts, mashed sweet potatoes, cranberry coleslaw, and sage mayo on a pretzel bun, plus gravy for dipping. There’s a reason this sammie comes back on the menu every November—taste for yourself.

INSTRUCTIONS

1
Roast the veggies

Preheat oven to 425°F. Combine Brussels sprouts, 2 tsp vegetable oil, and a pinch of salt and pepper on one half of baking sheet and toss to coat. On other half of baking sheet, combine sweet potato, 2 tsp vegetable oil, ¼ tsp pepper, and a pinch of salt and toss to coat. Roast until sprouts are browned and crispy and potato is soft, 18 to 22 minutes.

2
Mash the sweet potatoes and make the slaw

Meanwhile, combine coleslaw, cranberry sauce, orange zest, orange juice, just half the vinegar, and a pinch of salt and pepper in medium bowl. Set aside slaw. Transfer roasted potatoes to separate medium bowl, add minced sage and ¼ tsp salt, and mash using back of fork until mostly smooth. Set aside.

3
Make the sage mayo

Heat 1 tbsp vegetable oil in small saucepan over medium-high heat. Add whole sage leaves and fry until crispy, about 1 minute. Using slotted spoon, transfer fried leaves to cutting board, leaving sage oil in saucepan. Chop fried sage, transfer to small bowl, and stir in mayo and remaining vinegar. Set aside.

4
Make the gravy

Heat sage oil in same saucepan over medium heat. Add garlic and just half the flour and cook until softened and beginning to brown, 2 to 3 minutes. Whisk in broth concentrate and ¾ cup water. Bring to a boil and cook until thickened, 5 to 7 minutes. Season to taste with salt and pepper.

5
Assemble the sandwiches and serve

Spread mashed sweet potatoes on bottom halves of toasted buns. Top with roasted Brussels sprouts and cranberry slaw. Spread sage mayo on top halves of buns and close sandwiches. Serve with remaining slaw and gravy for dipping. Dig in!
