Take your lunch game to new heights with the Pelican Island Smoked Turkey Sandwich, a gourmet creation that combines bold flavors and wholesome ingredients. Featuring tender, thinly sliced smoked turkey breast layered on golden-toasted sourdough bread, this sandwich is elevated with a tangy cranberry mayo and creamy mashed avocado, perfectly balanced by the peppery bite of fresh baby arugula and juicy slices of ripe tomato. Add optional Swiss cheese to take the decadence up a notch. With just 15 minutes of prep and a quick skillet toast, this sandwich makes an ideal light yet satisfying meal. Serve it with chips, pickles, or fruit, and savor every bite of this irresistible deli-style masterpiece!
In a small bowl, mix the mayonnaise and cranberry sauce to create a tangy cranberry mayo. Set aside.
Slice the avocado in half, remove the pit, and scoop the flesh into a bowl. Mash it gently with a fork, adding a pinch of salt and black pepper.
Thinly slice the tomato into four rounds.
Spread the softened butter on one side of each sourdough slice. Heat a skillet or griddle over medium heat, and toast the buttered side of each slice until golden brown. Remove from the skillet and place the non-toasted side facing up.
Spread the cranberry mayo evenly onto the non-toasted side of two slices of bread.
Layer the sandwich with baby arugula or spinach, smoked turkey slices, a slice of Swiss cheese (if using), tomato slices, and the mashed avocado. Add a pinch of black pepper for extra flavor, if desired.
Top with the remaining slices of toasted bread (toasted side up).
Cut each sandwich in half diagonally and serve immediately. Enjoy your Pelican Island Smoked Turkey Sandwich with a side of chips, pickles, or fresh fruit for a full meal.
