Let's have a sandwich night

Hi Friends,

Tonight was sandwich night, I would say it is a little break but there are a lot of steps in making a Turkey Club Sandwich.  My husband had never had one of these sandwiches until after we were married a few years, now he requests them, especially in the summer. 

Here is what you will need:










I just happened to have some left-over roast turkey.  I have also used deli turkey meat as well as some chicken from a deli rotisserie chicken.  You can also substitute the mayonnaise for Miracle Whip, this is what we use most often.









Slice the tomatoes to desired thickness.









I hope you like toast, it takes three pieces per sandwich.
Start frying the bacon. I missed a photo of the turkey, but slice it into fairly thick slices.









When bacon is done, drain on paper towels.









I missed a photo of the first layer with the turkey and mayonnaise.  What have I got against the turkey?  hmmmm I must explore this, but not now sandwiches to make.









Add second piece of toast, put mayonnaise on second piece of toast, add lettuce & tomato, salt & pepper.

Add bacon, I usually cut the bacon strips into two pieces.










Add mayonnaise to top piece of toast.












The completed sandwich.











Ingredients:

Mayonnaise

Lettuce

Bacon, fried, three slices per sandwich (or more)

Tomatoes, sliced aproximately 1/4"

Bread, toasted, three slices per sandwich

Turkey or chicken, roasted or slices from the deli, sliced

Salt & pepper to taste

Recipe:

Begin frying the bacon, drain on paper towels. At the same time start putting bread in the toaster (3 slices per sandwich).  Set toasted bread on plate in single layer.  Slice the turkey if not already done, this is a good use of left-over turkey from the holidays.  Wash and tear lettuce leaves to size of toast. 

Assemble sandwich:

Apply mayonnaise to each slice of toast to start each layer. Add turkey to first slice of toast, add salt & pepper to taste.  Add second piece of toast on top of turkey, apply mayonnaise to both sides of this slice, add lettuce leaf, tomato, salt & pepper & bacon.  Top with the third piece of toast.

Slice sandwich. Open wide, this sandwich is a mouthful!

Enjoy.
