The Best Turkey Sandwich

The Best Turkey Sandwich

20 min

Ingredients

  • 3 slices of Bacon
  • 2 Everything Bagels
  • 6 slices of Turkey
  • Cheddar Cheese
  • 4 slices of Heirloom Tomato
  • 1/2 an Avocado
  • 1 tablespoon Mayonnaise
  • Stone Ground Mustard

Directions

  1. 1

    First, you need to heat your oven so that you can prepare the bacon. Heat your oven to 375 degrees, and place three slices of bacon on a parchment lined baking sheet. Bake until crispy, this will take about 12 minutes. Then blot the extra grease with a paper towel and cut each slice of bacon in half.

  2. 2

    Slice your bagels if they aren't already. Start by layering 3 slices of turkey on each bagel. Add the tomatoes on top. Then add the cheese - I used Cabot's presliced cheddar which is smaller than the big slices from the deli and better suited for a bagel sandwich. I used 3 slices per sandwich.

  3. 3

    Place the bagels on a parchment lined baking sheet. I bake them without putting the top of the bagel on top of the sandwich, I leave it on the side to toast. This makes it easier to add the avocado mayo and/or mustard before serving.

  4. 4

    Bake the sandwiches for about 10 minutes, until the cheese has melted. While the sandwiches bake, mash the avocado and mayonnaise together. Before serving the sandwiches, add a thick layer of avocado mayonnaise. If you like you can also add some stone ground mustard. Serve immediately.
