Tips for making the best turkey and peach sandwiches
- Use good crusty bread: the heartier the tastier!
- Use thick-sliced turkey: more flavor and texture.
- Find fresh peaches that are just starting to ripen. Slightly firm is OK as they will slice better.

- Cook Time: 5 mins
- Total Time: 15 mins
- Yield: 4 sandwiches 1x
Description
Tender turkey breast sandwiched between perfectly toasted whole grain bread with fresh basil, summer peaches, and nutty Manchego. This sandwich is simply delicious.
Ingredients
- 8 slices good crusty bakery bread, toasted (I like a seedy multigrain)
- 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
- Salt and black pepper
- 3 tablespoons Dijon mustard
- 4 ounces sliced Manchego cheese
- 10 ounces thick-sliced roasted turkey breast, thinly sliced
- 8 leaves green leaf lettuce
- 8 large basil leaves
- 2 slightly firm peaches, halved, pitted, and thinly sliced
- ⅓ cup thinly sliced white onion
Instructions
Heat broiler to high with rack set 6-inches from element. Arrange bread slices on a baking sheet, brush one side with oil, and season with salt and pepper. Broil bread until lightly toasted, about 1½ minutes each side.
Transfer four bread slices to a cutting board, oiled-side down, and spread with Dijon.
Divide cheese among remaining four bread slices on baking sheet, oiled side down. Return cheese-topped bread to oven and broil until cheese is melted, about 1 minute.
Divide turkey, lettuce, basil, peaches, and onion among four cheese-topped bread slices. Place remaining four bread slices, Dijon-side down, on top sandwiches and cut in half.
Yum
