Turkey Cranberry Sandwich Recipe

bread

cheddar cheese

cranberry sauce

TBS salted butter (softened)

turkey

Place 1 slice of cheese on one slice of bread.

Spread 2 TBS cranberry sauce on top of the slice of cheese, then arrange ¼ lb. of turkey on top of the cranberry sauce.

Put another slice of cheese on top of the turkey, followed by a second slice of bread.

Use ½ TBS butter to butter the outside of the top piece of bread. Place the sandwich onto a large non-stick skillet, buttered side down – leaving room for the second sandwich as well.

Spread ½ TBS butter on the outside of the other slice of bread.

Repeat with remaining ingredients to make a second sandwich.

Turn the heat on to medium-low and cover the skillet with a lid. This is important to heat the ingredients and melt the cheese. Cook on medium-low for 4-5 minutes, or until the bottom slice of bread is golden-brown.

Flip sandwich over, turn heat to low and continue cooking an additional 4-5 minutes until the second side is golden-brown and the cheese is melted.

Remove from pan and serve immediately.
