Ingredients

  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 2 10-inch tortillas
  • 4 oz. brie cheese brine removed and cut into thin slices
  • 1/4 cup cranberry sauce
  • 1/2 cup shredded turkey
  • 2 teaspoons chopped fresh thyme
  • 1/4 cup leftover gravy for dipping

Instructions

  • Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. While the oil heats, spread the brie cheese onto one tortilla.
  • Place the cheesy tortilla in the skillet tortilla-side down (so the brie is up). With the heat set to medium, cover the skillet for 3 minutes to allow the cheese to melt.
  • Uncover the skillet and evenly spread the cranberry sauce over the brie cheese. Top the cranberry sauce with the shredded turkey and sprinkle with fresh thyme.
