We do eat similar stuff here, as in the traditional Thanksgiving
leftover sandwiches. We put ham and turkey on a roll, and put some
sort of cheese on top, and run it under the broiler. Then we top
the critter with cranberry sauce and lettuce, put the lid on, and
devour. It can get a bit messy, but it tastes good.
