Turkey salad is a well-known way to serve leftover roast turkey; but
our version, with fresh leeks, chestnuts and bacon, is far from
humdrum. If you have the time, purchase fresh chestnuts and roast and
peel them yourself.
Ingredients
3 cups assorted mixed lettuce leaves (red leaf lettuce,
radicchio, frisee and mache) *
¼ pound cubed cooked turkey (2-inch cubes)
½ cup julienne-cut thoroughly washed leeks (white portion only),
matchstick pieces
3 small canned chestnuts (no sugar added), cut into halves
2 slices crisp bacon, broken into pieces
1/3 cup apple juice (no sugar added)
2 tbsp apple cider vinegar
2 tsp olive oil
Dash each salt and pepper
Method
-
