Tlc Sandwiches image

Show your family some Tender Loving Care with healthy TLC - Tofu, Lettuce and Cucumber. It's a fun twist on a BLT that is unbelievably yummy, with easy homemade salty, smoky tofu "bacon." For quick lunch assembly, prepare the tofu the day before and refrigerate it in a sealed container. Substitute mashed avocado for the mayo, if you wish to make it vegan. Enjoy!

This sandwich was just okay. I thought the turkey was a little dry and the cranberry sauce was too sweet. I wouldn't make this again.

This sandwich was a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I would have preferred it with less cranberry sauce.

I'm not a big fan of cranberry sauce, but I actually liked it on this sandwich. The sweetness of the sauce balanced out the savory flavors of the turkey and lettuce.

This sandwich was a bit bland for my taste. I think it could have used some more seasoning. I also found the cranberry sauce to be a bit too sweet.

I've made this sandwich several times now, and it's always a crowd-pleaser. The combination of sweet and savory is irresistible, and the cranberry sauce adds a nice tartness. I highly recommend this recipe!

This TLC sandwich was a hit with my family! The flavors of the turkey, lettuce, and cranberry sauce were perfectly balanced. I used a soft ciabatta roll, which made the sandwich even more delicious.
