    Turkey, Apple, Bacon and Cheddar Sandwiches

    Sep 21, 2018 | by Jennifer | Last Updated: Jul 12, 2021

    Jump to Recipe

    Perfect for an easy and delicious lunch, these Turkey, Apple, Bacon and Cheddar Sandwiches come together quickly and can be made ahead, too!

    Turkey, Apple and Bacon Cheddar Melts

    Turkey is perfect for sandwiches, so if you find yourself with left-over turkey, this easy and delicious Turkey, Apple, Bacon and Cheddar Sandwich is a perfect use for it. These sandwiches start with nice artisan bread (I used Cranberry and Pumpkin seed bread), topped with turkey, bacon, sliced apple and cheddar. To up the flavour, I've also drizzled them with an easy and delicious creamy honey mustard poppy seed sauce.

    These open-faced sandwiches make a great lunch and can be made ahead and refrigerated, so they can travel to work with you or simply be enjoyed at home for a quick lunch. Simply pop in the microwave (or oven) for a few minutes to light warm and enjoy!

    Cook's Notes

    You can use any bread you like for the base, but I find an oval, artisan loaf works best. I've used a Cranberry Pumpkin Seed loaf here, which was so nice with the toppings.

    Be sure to toast both sides of your bread well, so your sandwich is sturdy enough to be picked up to eat, if you like.

    I have used a whole slice of bacon here, but you certainly don't need a whole slice. Half a slice per sandwich or even crumbled bacon would work just fine here.

    A nice aged white cheddar is perfect for these. The nice thing about aged cheddar is that you need less of it, as it has more flavour!

    These sandwiches are nice and sturdy once cooked, so they travel well. Take one for lunch and simply pop in the microwave for a few seconds to lightly warm and enjoy!

    I found these sandwiches also keep well in the refrigerator. Wrap them up and enjoy them from the fridge (and rewarmed in the microwave) for a couple of days.

    Servings 5 sandwiches

    Ingredients
     

    • 5 slices artisan bread, oval works best (I used Cranberry Pumpkin Seed)
    • 200 g Lilydale® Oven Roasted Carved Turkey Breast
    • 3-5 slices cooked bacon slices
    • 1 cup apples slices, from one large apple
    • 1 1/4 cup shredded aged white cheddar

    Sauce:

    • 2 tsp honey
    • 2 tsp apple cider vinegar
    • 2 Tbsp mayonnaise or Greek yogurt
    • 1 tsp Dijon mustard
    • 1 tsp poppy seeds
    • Salt and freshly ground pepper
    Prevent screen from going dark

    Instructions
     

    • Cook your bacon until crisp (or start with ready-cooked bacon slices). Use 1/2 - 1 slice of bacon per sandwich.
    • Preheat your oven broiler, with the rack 6-8 inches from the heat source.
    • Meanwhile, prepare the sauce by combining all the ingredients in a small bowl and whisking together with a fork until smooth and creamy. Set aside.
    • Place your bread slices on a baking sheet. Place under hot broiler and toast until golden. Flip bread slices over and toast the other side as well. Remove from oven, leaving broiler on.
    • Top toasted bread slices with Lilydale® Oven Roasted Carved Turkey Slices. Top with a half or full slice of cooked bacon. Scatter some apple slices over-top. Drizzle about a tablespoon of the sauce over the sandwich, then top each with about 1/4 cup of shredded cheddar.
    • Place under broiler just until cheese is melted. Remove from oven and enjoy!

    Notes

    These keep well, so make them ahead, cover and refrigerate. Enjoy from the refrigerator, rewarmed a bit in the microwave or oven.

        Thanks Shelly. The greens are pea shoots, just added for a little colour (it seemed really "brown" without, and a few greens never hurts :)
