Notes

This sandwich is also good with a bit of cranberry sauce, stuffing, or green bean casserole in with the turkey. Pile in whatever sounds good. 
To make gravy from scratch, melt 2 tablespoons of butter in a sauce pan over medium heat. Whisk in flour and cook 1 minute. Slowly whisk in 2 cups of chicken broth and continue cooking, whisking constantly, over medium heat until thickened. Season to taste.
