Turkey and Cheese

Cooking

Method

Preparing the Dressing

  1. 1

    Make the Thousand Island Dressing

    In a medium bowl, combine the mayonnaise, ketchup, sweet pickle relish, apple cider vinegar, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Mix until smooth and well combined. Set aside.

Assembling the Sandwich

  1. 2

    Assemble the Sandwich

    Lay out two slices of whole wheat bread. On each slice, place a layer of turkey breast, followed by a slice of Swiss cheese. Spread a generous amount of the Thousand Island dressing on top of the cheese. Place the remaining bread slices on top to complete the sandwiches.

Grilling the Sandwich

  1. 3

    Grill the Sandwich

    In a skillet over medium heat, melt the butter. Once the butter is melted and bubbling, carefully place the assembled sandwiches in the skillet. Grill for about 3-4 minutes on each side or until the bread is golden brown and crispy, and the cheese has melted.
