Sweet & Spicy Grilled Turkey Sandwich

Serves: 4-5 Prep time: 30 min Cook Time Time: 10 min Total Time: 40 min

Ingredients

1/2 lb Johnstons thick sliced bacon

1 loaf French bread sliced about an inch thick

300 g Hofstede’s roasted turkey or left over turkey from your holiday dinner

2 cups spinach

4-5 slices monterey jack cheese

Sweet & Spicy Mustard

2 tbsp Keens hot mustard

2 tbsp honey

1 tbsp demerara brown sugar

Caramelized Onions

2 med-sized yellow onions sliced and halved

2 tbsp salted butter

Directions

Preheat oven to 350 and cook bacon on a cookie sheet until the desired doneness. At the same time, the bacon is cooking. Place the onions in a frying pan with butter on medium heat and cook until caramelized. (Make sure to adjust the heat down if needed so they don’t burn). In a small bowl, combine the mustard ingredients and set aside. Once the bacon and onions are done, assemble the sandwich: mustard, cheese, spinach, turkey, onions and bacon between the French bread pieces. Next, place into a panini press for about 3-4 minutes (See note below if you don’t have a press). Serve on its own or with a salad or soup! Enjoy!

Notes:

If you don’t have a press, butter each side of the French loaf slices before assembling and grill in a frying pan or place all the sandwiches on a cookie sheet with another sheet on top of them, press the sandwiches down and bake in the oven at 350 for about 8-10 mins. (If you want the tops a little crispy, remove the top sheet and broil for a minute on high)
