Easy Leftover Turkey Sliders
The steps:
Preheat oven to 350°. Lightly grease an 11x8-inch baking dish.
In a small bowl, stir together cream cheese and sweet potatoes until smooth.
Cut each roll horizontally in half. Place 1 slice of cheese (cut to fit roll) on each bottom half. Divide stuffing into 6 portions (about ¼ cup each); pat each portion into a patty to fit roll, and place on top of cheese. Divide cream cheese mixture evenly among sliders (about 1 tablespoon each); top each with 1 ounce turkey. Cover with top halves of rolls, and place in prepared pan. Brush melted butter on top of sliders. Cover with foil.
Bake until heated through, 25 to 30 minutes. Top each slider with 1 tablespoon cranberry sauce. Serve immediately.
