Southwestern Crispy Grilled Turkey & Cheese
Fantastic sandwiches! The crispy, crunch of the grilled sandwich is amazing! The butter mixed with the parmesan cheese and garlic was the perfect spread for the outside of these sandwiches! The inside of the sandwiches were just as spectacular as the outside! Fresh oven roasted turkey breast with melted Colby Jack cheese lined with fresh from the garden tomato and spinach all nestled between the chipotle mayo which wasn't to spicy, just the right touch! You can control the amount of heat in the mayo by using very little pepper or using a lot!
It's funny how each summer we are either hooked on sandwiches or hooked on salads but never on both! This summer is sandwiches and last summer was salads!
