I dreamt up this sandwich, went to the store to get the ingredients, came home to make it and it turned out even better than I could have expected! Now, I don’t crave meet often, but when I do, it’s very limited and always a very specific craving – this sandwich needed turkey deli meat or I wouldn’t have made it at all.
Anyway, it’s great for breakfast or as a snack. Once I made it for the first time, we had it for breakfast every day that week. Add more ingredients or take out some – it will be great regardless. 🙂
Makes 2 sandwiches.
Ingredients
- 4 slices of thin, dark and grainy bread (my fave for this is the Rudzu rikas)
- cream cheese (I actually used Dzintars for this)
- 6 slices turkey deli meat
- horseradish sauce from IKEA, optional
- mayonnaise
- sweet mustard
- handful of baby spinach
- 1 large tomato
- 1 avocado (optional, as this makes all other ingredients tend to slide out :D)
- pickles
Instructions
- Toast all 4 slices of bread.
- To make one sandwich, take 2 slices of bread and spread cream cheese on one, and then mayonnaise and sweet mustard of the other slice.
- On the slice with cream cheese, lay down 3 folded slices of turkey meat next to each other. For Mikus, I will also spread a bit of the IKEA sauce on top.
- On the other slice, put some spinach to cover the mayo, then add 2 big slices of tomato. On top of that, add slices of half an avocado and sliced pickles.
- Attempt to put the slice with turkey on top of the other one. To serve, carefully cut the sandwich in half. Grab a napkin and enjoy! (Everything should start falling apart but that’s okay, life is messy and so is my sandwich game.)
