Notes

1. Use whole grain or multi-grain bread for added nutritional benefits and a hearty taste.
2. If you're not a fan of mayo, substitute it with Greek yogurt for a healthier twist.
3. For a smoky flavor, consider adding a slice of smoked cheese.
4. Toasting the bread can add a nice crunch to the **Leftover Roasted Turkey BLT**.
