My grandson was visiting and when I offered to make him a turkey sandwich, he asked if I could make him a grilled cheese and turkey. This sandwich sort of grew from ingredients that I had on hand that sounded like they would go well together. The result was delicious awesomeness! I hope you enjoy this sandwich as much as we do.
