This old-fashioned turkey salad recipe can be made with leftover turkey or turkey breast. It is my great-grandmother's recipe. The cook time does not include baking the turkey, just making the salad. Keeping the salad somewhat chunky is part of what makes it good. No food processors, please. I serve this on a bed of red leaf lettuce and garnish with red and green seedless grapes and pecan halves. Cubed jellied cranberry sauce is very good with it, so I place that on the plate around the salad. Serve with assorted crackers or bread.
