SECRET INGREDIENT LEFTOVER TURKEY SALAD



Secret Ingredient Leftover Turkey Salad image

I'm a big fan of secret ingredients and my (not-so) secret ingredient for this turkey salad is...sugar! It sounds strange in a savory turkey salad, but it really ups the flavor profile. One taste and I guarantee you'll never go without it. So grab that surplus poultry and get your preferred carb (or crisp lettuce leaf) of choice ready for a turkey salad piled high with lettuce and tomato.
