# What You'll Need:
→ Sandwich Components
01 -
4 slices sourdough or thick-cut crusty bread
02 -
2 tablespoons honey mustard
03 -
2 slices white cheddar cheese, halved
04 -
4 slices deli turkey breast
05 -
1 medium red tomato, thinly sliced
06 -
½ cup fresh baby spinach leaves
07 -
4 strips cooked bacon
08 -
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
# Steps to Follow:
01 -
Lay the slices of sourdough bread on a clean surface and evenly spread ½ tablespoon of honey mustard on one side of each slice.
02 -
Place a half-slice of white cheddar cheese on each bread slice. Then, add two slices of deli turkey breast onto two of the slices.
03 -
Arrange thin slices of red tomato and ¼ cup of fresh baby spinach leaves over the turkey-covered bread slices.
04 -
Place two strips of cooked bacon on the remaining cheese-covered slices and close each sandwich by matching with the turkey and vegetable layers.
05 -
Spread ½ tablespoon of softened unsalted butter on the outer sides of each sandwich slice to ensure golden browning.
06 -
Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Grill the sandwiches for 3 to 4 minutes per side, or until the bread is golden brown and the cheese has melted.
07 -
Remove sandwiches from the skillet and serve immediately with your preferred accompaniments.
# Additional Tips:
01 -
Use freshly sliced white cheddar for better melting and flavor. Adjust cooking temperature to prevent burning the bread before the cheese melts. Leftover turkey works perfectly; increase toasting time if slices are thick.
