Smoked Turkey Salad Recipe

This Smoked Turkey Salad Recipe is one that I am shocked that I hadn’t tried making sooner! Holiday dinner leftovers are a favorite of mine, but turkey salad was not a creation I have made before. (I have included affiliate links to products I love. As an Amazon Associate, I earn from qualifying purchases. ) 

Now I based this off of my Smoked Chicken Salad Recipe (get the recipe -> here) which is one of my favorite lunches to take to 3work! I love when leftover meat works into amazing leftovers!

How To Make Smoked Turkey Salad:

I made this using leftover smoked turkey breast but any smoked turkey will work. (Check out my Smoked Turkey Recipes -> here). The turkey was smoked on my Pit Boss Pro 1100 from Lowes, if you don’t have Lowes Walmart and Amazon carry other Pit Boss options or Pit Boss website themselves.  I love that I can set it at 225 with smoke and run inside and take a shower or prep sides and it just cooks my meat with an amazing smoke flavor!
