There I was, innocently walking through Costco doing a little grocery shopping, when the lady behind a serving table said “would you like to try a sample?” and she handed me a chunk of thin sliced turkey. Next thing I knew I was walking out of there with a 2 pound package of it. I’m always trying new things. Same old, same old is just not for me. So after pondering a bit and grabbing a few more ingredients, I had a plan. That night, magic unfolded at the dinner table via Grilled Turkey Sammiches! Not to be confused with sand – wiches, a sammich is much more robust than your run of the mill sandwich.
- 1 loaf of sliced Brownberry’s Oatnut bread — pull out 2 slices per sammich
- 1 2lb package of thin sliced turkey
- 1 head of romaine lettuce
- 3 large slicing tomatoes
- 1 lb sliced baby Swiss cheese
- 1 jar Pesto
- 1 stick of butter (1/4 lb), softened
- Butter the outsides of the bread
- Place the bread slices butter side down on the hot grill
- Toast just until you start to get stripes from the grill on each slice, taking care not to burn your bread!*
- Remove and prepare bread to build sandwiches
- Place your breads in “pairs” on a cookie sheet—toasted sides down
- Apply a generous amount of Pesto to each “untoasted side” of bread (at least 1T per slice)
- Place 3- 4 slices of Turkey on each “bottom” slice
- Cover the turkey with thin sliced tomato
- Place 3 slices of Swiss on top
- Set the cookie sheet on the hot grill, cover with foil until the cheese melts
- Remove the cookie sheet, transfer sammiches to a serving platter, arrange lettuce on each sammich and top with remaining toasted bread.
Utterly fabulous for lunch or dinner!
You can probably get 8 or more sammiches out of one loaf
*you can also just toast the bread in a frypan
