BEST GRILLED CHEESE AND TURKEY SANDWICH



Best Grilled Cheese and Turkey Sandwich image

This recipe might sound strange... who ever thought of using mayo on a grilled cheese instead of butter?? Try it, you'll see. It makes a great crunch on the bread. And you can use fat free mayo... I don't think fat free butter exists. I haven't found a cheese I don't like with this sanwich. You can also switch up the meat.

Time 11m

Yield 2 servings

Number Of Ingredients 4

4 slices whole wheat bread
2 KRAFT 2% Milk Sharp Cheddar Singles
12 slices OSCAR MAYER Deli Fresh Smoked Turkey Breast
2 tsp. margarine or butter, softened

Steps:

  • Fill bread slices with 2% Milk Singles and turkey to make 2 sandwiches.
  • Spread outsides of sandwiches with margarine.
  • Cook in skillet on medium heat 3 min. on each side or until golden brown on both sides.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients: The better the ingredients, the better the sandwich will be. Look for fresh, flavorful bread, ripe tomatoes, and creamy cheese. Use freshly ground pepper for the best flavor.
  • Don't overcrowd the sandwich: If you put too many ingredients on the sandwich, it will be difficult to eat and the flavors will be muddled. Stick to a few key ingredients that complement each other well.
  • Cook the sandwich slowly and evenly: Don't rush the cooking process. Cook the sandwich over medium heat so that the cheese has time to melt and the bread has time to toast. This will result in a perfectly grilled sandwich that is crispy on the outside and gooey on the inside.
  • Use a good quality mayonnaise: Mayonnaise adds richness and creaminess to the sandwich. Choose a mayonnaise that is made with fresh eggs and oil. Avoid mayonnaise that is made with artificial ingredients.
  • Add some extras: If you want to add some extra flavor to your sandwich, try adding some sliced avocado, bacon, or roasted red peppers. You could also add a fried egg or a drizzle of hot sauce.

Conclusion:

The grilled turkey cheese sandwich is a classic for a reason. It is simple to make, yet it is packed with flavor. With a few simple tips, you can make the perfect grilled turkey cheese sandwich that will be enjoyed by everyone. So next time you are looking for a quick and easy lunch or dinner, give the grilled turkey cheese sandwich a try. You won't be disappointed.
