Brie, Cranberries, And Turkey Grilled Cheese

Use up your leftover Christmas ingredients and treat yourself to a great snack with this decadent sandwich. Of course, the benefit of grilled cheese sandwiches is that they’re so versatile. They can also be dipped into soups that you may enjoy, or you may decide to add certain leftover spices to the melted cheese for a slightly different flavor profile. Moreover, they’re indulgent, and enjoyable, and filling, and you might not eat them for a while if you’re trying to stay in shape - so why not enjoy them now?

A tasty breakfast quesadilla like this one is the ideal way to start the day off right. Like before, you can add leftovers like turkey to the mix if you wish for a unique creation of your own, or wish to jazz things up a little.
