TURKEY TEA SANDWICHES

Provided by Ina Garten

Yield 32 sandwiches; 8 to 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

3/4 pound (12 ounces) cream cheese, room temperature
1/2 cup minced scallions (white and green parts)
Pinch kosher salt
Pinch freshly ground black pepper
1 loaf dense raisin-nut bread, unsliced
8 thin slices fresh or smoked turkey breast
Fresh basil leaves

Steps:

  • For the scallion cream cheese, combine the cream cheese, scallions and the salt and pepper in an electric mixer fitted with a paddle attachment. Do not whip.
  • For the sandwiches, have the store slice the bread lengthwise on a meat slicer into 1/4-inch-thick slices. (If that isn't possible, you can slice it crosswise with a very sharp knife.)
  • Lay out 8 slices of bread and spread them all with a thin layer of scallion cream cheese. Place a single layer of turkey on half the slices, cutting the edges to fit the bread. Place the basil leaves randomly on top of the turkey. Top with the other 4 slices of bread, cream cheese side down. Lay the sandwiches on a baking sheet covered with parchment paper, cover with damp paper towels and wrap the sheet with plastic. Refrigerate until the cream cheese is cold and firm. Place the sandwiches on a cutting board and, with a very sharp knife, cut off the crusts. Cut each large sandwich in half crosswise, and then cut each half diagonally, twice, to make a total of 8 small triangles. (If the bread was cut crosswise, follow the assembly directions, then cut off the crusts and cut diagonally, twice, to make 4 small triangles.) Serve chilled.

TURKEY SALAD SANDWICHES

Writes Merrijane Rice from Bountiful, Utah, "Inspired by a delicious turkey salad sandwich at a local deli, I developed my own version to suit my family's tastes. Serve this on croissants for an elegant luncheon or on hearty whole-grain bread for a filling meal. Pre-cooked bacon and canned-or leftover-turkey make it a snap to prepare!"

APRICOT-NUT TURKEY SALAD SANDWICHES



APRICOT-NUT TURKEY SALAD SANDWICHES image

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 1/2 cups shredded cooked turkey or chicken breast (about 6 ounces)
1/4 cup thinly sliced celery
1/4 cup light mayonnaise
2 tablespoons chopped unsalted cashews
2 tablespoons chopped dried apricots
2 tablespoons chopped green onions
2 tablespoons raisins
2 tablespoons plain low-fat yogurt
1/8 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon black pepper
4 leaf lettuce leaves
8 (1-ounce) slices pumpernickel bread

Steps:

  • Combine first 10 ingredients in a bowl. Place a lettuce leaf on each of 4 bread slices. Spread 1/2 cup turkey salad over lettuce; top with remaining bread slices.

Tips:

  • Use fresh, ripe ingredients: The quality of your ingredients will greatly impact the flavor of your salad sandwiches. Make sure to use fresh, ripe apricots and celery for the best results.
  • Don't overcook the turkey: Overcooked turkey can be dry and tough. Cook the turkey until it is just cooked through, but still tender. You can check this by inserting a meat thermometer into the thickest part of the breast; the internal temperature should read 165°F.
  • Make the salad dressing ahead of time: The salad dressing can be made up to 3 days in advance. This will save you time on the day you're making the sandwiches.
  • Assemble the sandwiches just before serving: The salad sandwiches are best when they're freshly assembled. This will help to prevent the bread from getting soggy.

Conclusion:

Turkey apricot salad sandwiches are a delicious and easy lunch option. They're perfect for picnics, potlucks, or a quick meal at home. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can make a delicious and satisfying sandwich that everyone will enjoy.
