Turkey Harvest Salad

Turkey Harvest Salad is a great way to use up leftover turkey breast from Thanksgiving. Let’s be clear though, it’s totally worth going to the store to buy turkey just to make this salad. Turkey Harvest Salad definitely has all of the fall feels with ingredients like dried cranberries, walnuts, blue cheese, and a maple balsamic dressing. I am pretty sure that you need to put on your sweatpants, turn on a football game, and enjoy this salad with the company of your loved ones. A dry chardonnay wouldn’t hurt either! 🙂
