Turkey Veggie Melt Recipes

TURKEY AND VEGGIE MELTS

Steps:

• Heat broiler. Cook vegetables as directed on box; pour into medium bowl. Stir in mustard.
• Place toasted bread slices on ungreased cookie sheet. Layer turkey evenly on bread. Spoon vegetable mixture over turkey. Sprinkle each with 2 tablespoons cheese.
• Broil 4 to 6 inches from heat 1 to 2 minutes or until cheese is melted.

ROASTED VEGETABLE, HAM, AND TURKEY MELTS

Steps:

• Heat broiler. Put mushrooms in a single layer on a baking pan, season with salt and pepper, and drizzle lightly with olive oil. Place pan under broiler until mushrooms brown around edges, 2 to 4 minutes. Transfer mushrooms to a large bowl; set aside. Using same pan, repeat process with tomatoes until they are soft, 3 to 4 minutes. Repeat with onions, until they are tender, 6 to 8 minutes. Repeat with peppers, until skins start to blister, 6 to 8 minutes. When peppers are cool enough to handle, remove skin and stems; cut into 1-by-2-inch pieces. Combine all vegetables in a bowl, and toss with parsley. Season with salt and pepper, and set aside.
• Halve bread lengthwise. Spread mustard on both sides; layer with roasted vegetables. Arrange turkey and/or ham over vegetables; top with cheese. Place on baking pan; transfer to broiler until warmed through and cheese is melted, about 2 minutes. Serve.

TURKEY PATTY MELT

Steps:

• Heat 1 tablespoon of the oil in a large cast iron skillet over medium heat. Add the onion, season with some salt and pepper, and cook until golden, about 7 minutes. Put in a bowl and set aside. Wipe out the skillet and add another tablespoon of oil. Season the turkey patties with salt and pepper, and cook in the remaining oil until well browned, about 3 minutes per side. Remove from the skillet. Wipe out the pan.
• Divide the onions among 4 bread slices, and top with a slice of cheese, a patty, another slice of cheese, and a slice of bread. Spread the top and bottom of the sandwiches with some butter. Heat the cast iron skillet over medium heat. Cook the sandwiches, in batches if needed, turning once, until lightly browned and the cheese melts, about 2 minutes per side. Halve the sandwiches and serve with cranberry sauce, if desired.
