Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

  3. In a mixing bowl, combine mayonnaise and Dijon mustard until smooth. Spread it over the bottom halves of the buns.
  4. Evenly distribute cooked turkey over the mayo-mustard coated buns. Spoon whole berry cranberry sauce generously over the turkey.
  5. Add a layer of Swiss cheese on top of the turkey and cranberry. Press the top halves of the buns down.
  6. Mix melted butter with garlic powder, onion powder, poppy seeds, and parsley. Brush over the assembled sliders.
