Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 slices sourdough bread (or any bread you prefer)
  • 4 slices turkey (or substitute with chicken or ham)
  • 2 slices Swiss cheese (or any cheese you like)
  • 2 tablespoons cream cheese
  • 1/4 cup coleslaw (store-bought or homemade)
  • 2 tablespoons Thousand Island dressing
  • 1 tablespoon butter

Equipment Needed:

  • Frying pan or griddle
  • Spatula
  • Knife for spreading
  • Cutting board
  • Plate for serving

Instructions

  1. Prepare the bread:
    • Spread cream cheese on one side of each slice of bread.
  2. Assemble the sandwich:
    • On one slice of bread (cream cheese side up), layer 2 slices of turkey, 1 slice of Swiss cheese, and 2 tablespoons of coleslaw.
    • Drizzle 2 tablespoons of Thousand Island dressing over the coleslaw.
    • Add the remaining 2 slices of turkey and top with the second slice of Swiss cheese.
  3. Close the sandwich:
    • Place the second slice of bread (cream cheese side down) on top of the fillings. Press down gently to hold everything together.
  4. Cook the sandwich:
    • Heat a frying pan over medium heat and melt 1 tablespoon of butter.
    • Place the sandwich in the pan and cook for 3-4 minutes on each side, or until the bread is golden brown and the cheese is melty.
  5. Serve and enjoy:
    • Remove the sandwich from the pan and transfer it to a plate.
    • Cut in half if desired and serve hot.

Notes

  • If you have leftovers, store them in the fridge wrapped tightly in foil or plastic wrap for up to 2 days.
  • To reheat, place the sandwich in a pan over medium heat until warm and crispy again.
