  • On a chopping board, slice bolillo rolls in half lengthwise. Spread mayonnaise on the top piece of the roll and refried beans on the bottom part of the roll. For a turkey torta: Layer the bottom part of the roll with turkey and brine. For a spicy turkey torta: Layer the bottom part of the roll with adobo turkey, cheese slices, pickled Jalapeño chiles, and sliced onion.
