Don't you love a good sandwich? I know that I do, and so does my hubby. Not to brag, but he's not the only person who says my sandwiches are exceptional. This turkey and apple sandwich with cheddar cheese is a new favorite in our house. I frequently make our sandwiches with pickles, lettuce, and tomatoes, but I didn't have any of those things on hand one day. But I did have my other sandwich staples - meat, cheese, and a delicious bread.
So looking around my kitchen I was trying to think of what else I could use in place of my regular sandwich toppings. Hello apples. I like my sandwich with a little crunch and sliced apples would be perfect for that. I turned on my oven (because oven toasted sandwiches make THE best homemade sandwich recipes) and pulled out my other ingredients.
I almost always buy bakery fresh loaves of bread. Have you noticed how your local supermarket has fresh unsliced bread for only a $1? They probably do, or at least all of the supermarkets around here do. And the bread is Ah-mazing. Especially for $1, I think I can slice my own bread. For this hot turkey sandwich recipe, I picked up a crazy delicious loaf of Italian bread covered in garlic and other spices.
After my bread was sliced and my oven nice and hot, I lined a baking sheet with some parchment paper - I love easy clean up. Then I placed my slices of bread on the baking sheet and topped 1 piece of bread with sliced turkey and the other piece with sliced cheddar per sandwich. In less then 5 minutes, you have perfectly toasted bread, hot turkey, and bubbly cheddar cheese - yum!
While the sandwich were in the oven, I sliced my apples and gathered mustard, mayo, salt, and pepper. And that's what went on top of the sandwiches once they came out of the oven.
I like to serve the sandwiches as soon as they come out of the oven with a side of chips. sandwich sides other than chips
Although I love them, there are plenty of sandwich sides other than chips. Here are a few of my favorites.
I hope you enjoy turkey and apple sandwiches with cheddar as much as we do 🙂
