🥘 Ingredients

10 items

• 4 slices sourdough bread
• 2 tablespoons butter
• 8 slices cooked turkey breast
• 4 tablespoons lingonberry preserves
• 1 cup baby arugula

• 4 tablespoons cream cheese

📝 Instructions

8 steps

1. Lightly toast the slices of sourdough bread until golden brown. Set them aside to cool slightly.

2. Spread about ½ tablespoon of butter on one side of each toasted bread slice for extra richness.

3. In a small bowl, combine the baby arugula with the juice of half a lemon, a pinch of sea salt, and a light sprinkle of black pepper. Toss to coat well.

4. Spread 1 tablespoon of cream cheese evenly over each slice of bread.

5. Place two slices of cooked turkey on top of each piece of bread, arranging them to cover the surface evenly.

6. Spoon 1 tablespoon of lingonberry preserves over the turkey on each slice, spreading it lightly for even flavor distribution.

7. Top each sandwich with a handful of the lemon-dressed arugula and a sprinkle of freshly chopped dill for garnish.

8. Serve immediately as an open-faced sandwich, or optionally cut each slice in half for easier handling.
