Harvest Turkey-Chestnut Salad

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

  • On serving platter decoratively arrange assorted lettuce leaves; top with turkey, leeks, chestnuts and bacon.

  • In cup or small bowl combine remaining ingredients and stir well to combine; pour evenly over salad

  • MAKES 2 SERVINGS
     

* Three cups assorted mixed greens of your choice may be substituted for the red leaf lettuce, radicchio, frisee, and mache.
