This Grilled Cheese Sandwich is the perfect way to use up Leftover Turkey. Packed with Bacon, Avocado and Ranch, turkey melts never tasted so good!
Prep Time: 10 minutes
Cook Time: 10 minutes
Servings: 2
Ingredients:
- 4 slices Large Thick White Bread
- 1 cup Leftover Turkey, or as needed
- 6 slices Cheese (see notes)
- 6 single rashers Streaky Bacon, cooked to preference
- 4 tbsp Ranch
- 1 small Avocado, sliced
- Butter, as needed
Instructions:
- Place two slices of bread on the pan with the heat OFF. Spread with butter and flip.
- Spread with ranch (don’t go overboard or it’ll soak into the bread), then place cheese, followed by turkey, avocado, bacon, more cheese and finish with another slice of bread.
- Spread with ranch, flip, then spread with butter.
- Turn on heat to a medium and fry each side until golden brown, ensuring you flip carefully so the filling doesn’t spill out. Enjoy!
Notes:
a) Leftover Turkey – I recommend using breast if you can. Here I slice, but you can also shred with two forks.
b) Turkey Sub – This grilled cheese work perfectly with chicken too! You can also use deli style chicken/turkey.
c) Cheese – I usually go for cheddar, but Swiss cheese also works great. If you want that classic cheese pull go half mozzarella with whatever cheese you choose. I place 1.5 slices per side, but you could also grate the cheese too. Approx 1.5 cups cheese would work, but work to preference.
d) Additions – Red onion and sliced tomato also work great in this grilled cheese!
e) Calories – per sandwich, using all cheddar and 4 tsp butter.
