    Are you planning a party or a tea get-together but short on time? I've got a perfectly quick and scrumptious appetizer idea for you! These Turkey Croissan'wich Appetizers are very well-loved in our family. The perfect way to add vegetables to picky children's diets.

    They are not only attractive but taste great and healthier than most after-school quick snacks. This is a big party tray recipe but reduced, they're also great to take to work for lunch or pack for a picnic to enjoy a sunny day outside.

    When you buy your croissants in bulk, freeze them in single sandwich bags and just pull them one at a time as needed to make this awesomeness. For as big of a family I have, I don't have to wait until party time to make them... They go in a blink of an eye just as soon as I made them. Give them a try. 🙂

    • Deli turkey sliced meat - deli meat, roasted turkey meat, or leftover Thanksgiving turkey meat.
    • Mayonnaise - I used homemade mayonnaise, you cant go wrong there.
    • Sea salt - adding salt to the sandwich is nessesary but it adds so much flavor to the sandwich.
    • Black ground pepper - use as much or as little to your liking.

    How to Assemble Turkey Croissan'wich Appetizers

    1. Start by slicing each croissant in half and toasting it in the toaster. If you're on the time crunch you can place all halved croissants on a large baking sheet and broil in the oven for 30 seconds or until toasted to the desired color.
    2. Next, spread mayonnaise on the top half of the croissant (make sure you cool croissants to room temperature before assembling, this step will prolong the vegetable's life and presentation, especially if making them in advance); and place a slice of cheese onto the bottom half of the croissant.
    3. Place one (or two) leaf lettuce on top of the mayonnaise.
    4. Then place three to five slices of deli-sliced turkey on top of the cheese.
    5. Add a couple of slices of tomatoes and cucumbers and place it all on tom the turkey meat.
    6. Season with sea salt and freshly ground pepper to taste.
    7. Finally, top the other half of the croissant to assemble the sandwich and insert two wooden sticks on each side of the croissanwich before slicing it in half (that way the sandwich will stay in place without falling apart).

        Some prep can be done ahead of time like slicing croissants, vegetables and stored in the container. For the fresh look and taste, you need to assemble shortly before serving.

      I just bought a large pack of these croissants at Costco over the weekend. I wrapped half of them in plastic wrap and stuck them in a large freezer bag. These sandwiches are very similar to what I make as well. Nothing can beat the taste of a croissant sandwich!
