Ingredients

3 cups cooked turkey, finely chopped
1/2 cup diced celery
1 tablespoon finely minced onion
1/2 cup chopped dried apricots
1/2 teaspoon Spice Islands® Parsley
1/2 cup mayonnaise
1/2 container low fat sour cream

Tips:

To make the most of the apricot flavor, use fresh, ripe apricots. If fresh apricots are unavailable, you can substitute dried apricots, but be sure to plump them up in hot water before using.
If you don't have any apricot preserves, you can make your own by simmering chopped apricots, sugar, and lemon juice together until the mixture thickens.
Feel free to add other ingredients to your sandwich, such as lettuce, tomato, or cheese. You can also use a different type of bread, such as sourdough or rye.
For a healthier version of this sandwich, use whole-wheat bread and low-fat mayonnaise. You can also add some chopped vegetables, such as celery or carrots, to the sandwich.
These sandwiches are perfect for a quick and easy lunch or dinner. They can also be packed for a picnic or road trip.
