Turkey & Avocado Torta with Chipotle Aioli
Use up that leftover turkey and make a Turkey & Avocado Torta with Chipotle Aioli. This Mexican sandwich is a much-needed change in flavor when we're all trying to use up those Thanksgiving leftovers!
Ingredients
- 1 cup mayo
- 1 garlic clove
- 1 chipotle pepper from canned Chipotles in Adobo
- Salt & pepper to taste
- 4 large rolls (ideally Bolillo or Telera rolls) cut in half
- 2 avocados
- 2 cups leftover sliced turkey
- 4 slices of cheese
- Shredded lettuce
- Optional toppings: cilantro, pickled jalapeno slices, tomato, onion, refried beans, hot sauce
Instructions
- Make Chipotle Aioli: add mayo, chipotle pepper, garlic, and salt & pepper to a small food processor. Blend until fully combined and there are no chunks of garlic.
- Spread a good amount of the chipotle aioli on the bottom half of each roll. Top with turkey, onion, and a slice of cheese. Do this with all four rolls and place all the rolls (tops & bottoms) open-faced on a large baking sheet. Place under broiler until cheese is melted and rolls have turned golden.
- Mash two avocados and season with salt and pepper.
- Top turkey halves of rolls with desired toppings. Spread mashed avocado on the roll tops and place on top of the turkey halves. Enjoy!
