Thanksgiving Leftovers Pita With Cranberry Pomegranate Sauce Recipe

Recipe By The Spruce Eats

In addition to being about family and friends and food, thanksgiving is also a time to be grateful for what you have and seeing the glass as half full rather than half empty. Half the fun of studying the dinner leftovers situation the following day is figuring out how to use the bits that are left. Salads, sandwiches, soupschoices abound, but one thing that's a given is the ubiquitous leftover sandwich. This year, give your leftovers sandwich middle eastern flair by using pita bread and a housemade cranberry sauce infused with pomegranate molasses. Thanksgiving may be an american tradition, but those are best when everybody brings their own unique spin to the food.
