- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Mix the sprouts, apple cider vinegar and some seasoning in a bowl. Set aside. Split rolls lengthways. Spread mayonnaise over the bottom halves of bread, and cranberry sauce on top halves.
- Divide and distribute spinach leaves between rolls, topping each with turkey, stuffing and Brussels sprouts. Layer cheese on each roll, closing bread and gently pressing to keep ingredients together. Put sandwiches on lined tray, baking for 5 to 7 minutes to desired crispiness or until cheese has melted.
- Heat gravy, and pour into bowls to be served with sandwiches for easy dipping.
