Gourmet sandwiches, finally, with Sargento Ultra Thin Swiss (+ Meal Plan)

June 25, 2012 by 2 Comments

You know what I love to do? Find little sandwich shoppes that put a creative bend on a typical sandwich. You know… a little fruit or a fantastic dressing or a creative mix of elegant deli goodies. And on a special bread… not boring old white bread. Oh. And there *always*  have to be a cheese in there. Not a lot–just a thin little layer.

I so want to recreate those amazing sandwiches at lunch time and create my own. But as much as I love my local food store, they just haven’t been able to figure out how to (excuse the expression) cut the cheese to the right thinness. And I was sad. :( I couldn’t make the perfect sandwich that I often craved.

And then I tried Sargento’s Ultra Thin cheeses. Look at the difference between our store’s thin Swiss and Sargento’s Ultra Thin Swiss:

sargento swiss versus deli swiss

As soon as I saw the difference, I knew I could finally do it. I could finally create my favorites. And I did!

TAHHGM Melt (that's Turkey, Apple and Homemade Honey-Grainy-Mustard Dressing sandwich)

Ingredients

  • Two slices multigrain bread (the kind with the thick Jewish-rye-like crust)
  • Several slices of BBQ Turkey Breast from the deli. (Any turkey will do, I just like the spice in the BBQ marinade.) I like my sandwiches thick, so I layered in the turkey.
  • 2 or 3 very thin slices of an apple (eat the rest next to it, or share with your kids--which, inevitably, is what always happens around here)
  • Ultra Thin Sargento swiss
  • 2 tablespoons whole grain dijon mustard
  • 1 teaspoon honey

Get Cooking

  1. Lightly toast bread slices
  2. Prepare dressing: Mix whole grain mustard with honey and adjust to taste. I loved that I used whole grain rather than regular mustard because it gave a little different crunch and pop of flavor to the sandwich.
  3. Spread dressing on both pieces of bread
  4. Bottom up, layer turkey (I like to fold my turkey to layer it), apple slices, 1 piece of Sargento Swiss on sandwich; top with the top piece of toast
  5. Toast sandwich so that cheese just melts over the apples, cut in half and enjoy

    That looks AH-mazing. I bet it would be good on Udi’s Millet Chia bread. :-)
