Turkey BLT

This Turkey BLT is stacked with bacon, tomato, mozzarella, and a caesar slaw. Great for a beach day or a new lunch routine.

When it comes to the ultimate turkey sandwich, this is my go-to recipe that never disappoints. This is a Turkey BLT with layers of melty mozzarella, slices of turkey, and crispy bacon—all perfectly balanced with slices of heirloom tomatoes and a chopped, creamy Caesar-inspired slaw. The combination of smoky bacon and fresh tomato is a classic that I can’t resist, but when you add in the turkey and slaw, it takes this sandwich to a whole new level.

This sandwich has everything you could want: it’s crunchy, crispy, and bursting with fresh flavors in every bite. The mozzarella melts just enough to give you that gooey cheese pull, while the bacon adds a satisfying crunch. The creamy slaw brings in a rich, tangy element that ties all the flavors together. Whether you’re packing it up for a picnic, or you want to switch up your lunch routine, this sandwich is guaranteed to be a hit.

Ingredients

The creamy caesar:

• ▢ Thinly chopped romaine
• ▢ 1 egg yolk
• ▢ 1 tbsp capers
• ▢ 1 garlic clove minced
• ▢ 1 tbsp pepperoncinis diced
• ▢ 1 cup greek yogurt or mayo
• ▢ A squeeze of lemon
• ▢ 1 tbsp dijon mustard
• ▢ A nice glug of good olive oil
• ▢ Red onion I like to slice mine and soak in some water so they’re a little less strong when I add them to a sandwich

The rest:

• ▢ Ciabatta loaf
• ▢ Deli turkey
• ▢ Heirloom tomato slices
• ▢ A sprinkle of mozzarella
• ▢ Romaine lettuce
• ▢ Bacon

Instructions 

• Thinly slice onions and add water to a small bowl. This will mellow them out.
• Make caesar dressing by combining all ingredients except for the olive oil in a bowl. Slowly whisk in olive oil. Season to taste. Add in chopped romaine and mix until creamy and combined.
• Add a few slices of bacon to a pan and cook on medium heat until desired crispiness. Transfer to a paper towel lined plate.
• Add shredded mozzarella to ciabatta and broil for a few min until brown and bubbly. Add turkey, tomato, bacon and romaine slaw. Wrap, slice and enjoy!
