Cost: $12.24
Ingredients
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter softened
- 8 slices bread I use whole-grain
- garlic powder optional
- Mayo to taste
- 1 pound deli turkey
- 1 large Honeycrisp apple
- 8 slices bacon microwave bacon works great
- 4 slices Gouda
- 4 ounces mixed greens baby kale or arugula
Dressing
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 1 tablespoon Dijon-style mustard
- 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
- 1/4 cup mayo
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Combine all dressing ingredients in a mason jar. Add salt and pepper to taste, then shake well to combine. Set aside.
- Preheat the oven to broil, setting the rack in the center position. Let the oven fully heat.
- Spread softened butter evenly over both sides of each bread slice. If you like, sprinkle a small amount of garlic powder over the butter.
- Arrange the buttered bread slices on a baking sheet and broil for 45-90 seconds, watching carefully until golden. Flip the slices and broil the other side until nicely toasted. Remove from the oven.
- Remove 4 slices of toasted bread from tray and set aside for now. On the remaining 4 slices, spread mayo (about 1 tablespoon per slice, or to taste). Layer the turkey slices, thin apple slices, 2 bacon slices per sandwich, and a slice of Gouda.
- Return the sandwiches to the oven and broil for 30-90 seconds, just until the cheese melts. Watch carefully to avoid burning.
- Remove from the oven. Top the melted cheese with a handful of mixed greens and drizzle with the prepared dressing.
- Add the reserved bread slices on top, press gently, and serve immediately.
