How to Make The Best Turkey Sandwich

Adding vegetables and condiments will give your turkey sandwich more flavor.

Turkey sandwiches are a filling and nutritious meal that can be quickly prepared for lunch or dinner. While a simple turkey sandwich with just meat and cheese may satisfy your hunger, it will lack in flavor. The best turkey sandwiches contain condiments and garnish. Making a delicious turkey sandwich is easy to do and can be done with basic ingredients as well as vegetables and condiments you have in your refrigerator.

Things You'll Need

• Bread
• Turkey lunch meat
• Cheese
• Condiments
• Garnish

Instructions

1. Lay out two slices of your favorite bread. Using a specialty bread rather than just plain white or wheat bread will add more flavor to your sandwich.

2. Apply condiments to one side of each bread slice. Condiments to consider adding to your sandwich include mayonnaise, mustard, relish, ranch dressing or blue cheese dressing. Choose condiments based on your preferences and add as much of each condiment as you want.

3. Lay a few slices of turkey lunch meat on top of one of the bread slices. Using a flavored meat such as honey-smoked turkey will also add more flavor to your sandwich.

4. Add cheese on top of your turkey meat. Use any type of cheese you prefer or add several different types of cheese to give your sandwich maximum flavor. For example, add a slice of Swiss and a slice of Provolone cheese.

5. Add garnish to your sandwich. Lettuce, sliced tomatoes, cucumbers, sprouts, pickles and red onion slices are just a few examples of different vegetables that can be used as garnish on your turkey sandwich. The more vegetables you add, the more filling and flavorful your sandwich will be. You may also add other meats to your sandwich as garnish, such as bacon strips or slices of pastrami.

6. Place the remaining bread slice on top of your ingredients and cut your sandwich as desired before eating.
