Tonight I was faced with a cranky toddler who didn't want to be apart from me for more than a few minutes. "Mommy! Hug!!" Every time I plan my menu for the week, I try to include one or two really fast meals. Good thing. This sandwich was what I made. I altered the recipe just a tad. You can see the original recipe at Cleaneatingmagazine.com or click the link above. I tried to take pictures but the magazine did a much better job of it.
1 whole grain baguette, cut into 4 quarters (I found a 5 grain Italian baguette at Publix.)
low-sodium deli sliced turkey
mozzarella cheese, sliced (I have another recipe planned that calls for shredded mozzarella so I decided to buy it pre-shredded. This turned out to be a mistake as it didn't melt very easily. Next time I'll get fresh mozzarella. It tastes better anyway.)
Sun-dried tomato spread. I used this:
Arugula
To assemble:
Spread sun-dried tomato spread on bread, add turkey and cheese. You can either grill these, use a grill pan stovetop, or a skillet. You just need something to smoosh them down. Cook for about 3 minutes per side, pressing down as needed. Once nice and toasty and melty, open the bread and add the arugula.
Eat! These were SO good. It reminded me of something and I can't put my finger on it, which is driving me crazy. A little like a pizza or like spaghetti I've had somewhere.... The sun-dried tomatoes makes this special.
