If you’re in a lunch rut, look no further than my fancy turkey sandwich.
The Deets:
This one is a heartfelt ode to the iconic turkey sandwich from @depanneurbklyn. 🥪 I’ve been savoring this masterpiece for years, and it never fails to hit the spot. After countless trips, I decided it was finally time to recreate it at home—and I have to say, it’s every bit as delicious!
Here’s the breakdown: roasted turkey for that hearty protein base, manchego cheese for its nutty and creamy flavor, peppadews (those sweet and tangy pickled red peppers) to add a pop of brightness, pickled shallots for a zingy kick, peppery arugula for some freshness, and harissa mayo to tie it all together with a touch of spice. All of this goodness is layered on a toasted baguette for the ultimate crunchy, chewy perfection. 🤌🏻
If you’re stuck in a lunch rut, consider this your friendly reminder that lunch doesn’t have to be boring! With just a few special ingredients, you can whip up something truly exciting and satisfying.
I hope you give this one a try—it’s a game-changer! If you do, I’d love to hear your thoughts in the comments. And don’t forget to check out more lunch ideas on my page for some extra inspiration.
