Number Of Ingredients 7

4 Ciabatta rolls
1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
¾ pound sliced turkey
1 medium tomato (sliced)
6 slices bacon (cooked and halved)
1 avocado (mashed)
Cooking spray

Steps:

  • Cut Ciabatta rolls in half. On the bottom slice put mashed avocado, tomato, 2-3 slices of turkey and 3 half slices of bacon. Add 1/4 of the cheese on top.
  • Put the top half of the roll on top and spray with cooking oil.
  • If you have a panini maker, on medium heat, place two sandwiches on the surface and shut the lid. Cook for 3-5 minutes so that the sandwich is heated, and cheese is melted. Repeat for the other two sandwiches. If you are using a frying pan, on medium heat place two sandwiches and press them with a spatula occasionally. Cook until roll browns and cheese melts. Repeat for the other two sandwiches. Serve while hot.

Categories     main-dish

Time 45m

Yield 4 sandwiches

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 cups cherry tomatoes, halved
1/4 cup olive oil
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 cup store-bought pesto
8 slices pullman white bread
1/4 cup marinara sauce
8 slices sliced mozzarella or provolone
8 thin slices smoked turkey
1/4 cup freshly grated Parmesan

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.
  • Place the tomatoes on a rimmed baking sheet. Drizzle with 1 tablespoon olive oil and sprinkle with the salt. Toss well to coat. Roast the tomatoes until beginning to pop and blister, about 15 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, spread 1 tablespoon pesto on 4 slices of bread. Spread 1 tablespoon marinara on the other 4 slices. Place a slice of mozzarella on each slice of bread. Divide the turkey evenly on 4 slices of bread and top with some of the blistered tomatoes. Sprinkle each sandwich with 1 tablespoon Parmesan. Top with the remaining slices of bread and press gently.
  • Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add half of the remaining oil to the skillet and add 2 sandwiches. Place a lid slightly smaller than the skillet on top of the sandwiches and press down. Cook until golden brown, about 3 minutes. Flip the sandwiches and repeat on the second side. Continue with the remaining sandwiches. (Alternatively, you can use a panini press.) Serve warm.

AVOCADO TURKEY PANINI

If you don't have a panini press, simply grill as you would your favorite grilled cheese. To mimic the pressed, crusty panini, weight down the sandwiches with a cast iron or other heavy skillet. For another layer of flavor, you could add a thin spread of Dijon mustard or pesto under the cheese. Yields 2 sandwiches.

Number Of Ingredients 9

4 slices country style or other hearty bread (ciabatta rolls work well, too; see notes)
1/4 pound leftover shredded turkey or chipped deli turkey
1/2 ripe avocado
1 tablespoon mayonnaise
1/8 teaspoon each kosher salt and pepper
1 tablespoon olive oil
4-6 slices Sargento Ultra Thin or regular Provolone cheese (may substitute variety of choice)
1 cup fresh spinach leaves
1 roasted red pepper, sliced into thin strips (may use freshly roasted or marinated from jar)

Steps:

  • Preheat a panini press. (You may use a skillet or grill pan if you don't have a panini press.) In a small bowl, mash the avocado, mayonnaise, salt and pepper together until thoroughly mixed. Brush one side of each piece of bread with olive oil, and place with the olive oil side down. Top two of the bread slices with three pieces of the thin sliced cheese or two pieces of the regular, breaking as needed to evenly cover the bread. Place half of the sliced turkey, half of the spinach leaves, and half of the sliced pepper on top of each piece of cheese covered bread. Spread half of the avocado mixture on the two remaining slices of bread (on the side without the olive oil), and place on top of the turkey covered pieces. Carefully, place the sandwiches on the panini press, and cook until the bread is golden brown and crisp and the cheese has melted, about 3 to 5 minutes. Cut in half and enjoy warm.

Time 10m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

1/4 cup low-fat ranch dressing
2 tablespoons chipotle salsa
1/4 teaspoon finely grated orange zest
4 (8-inch) flour tortillas
12 ounces sliced oven-roasted turkey breast (from deli)
1 ripe Hass avocado, pitted, peeled, and sliced
2 cups mesclun lettuce or sprigs of cilantro
1 1/2 cups grated jicama
1 tomato, thinly sliced
2 scallions (white and green parts), thinly sliced
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • In a small bowl, combine the ranch dressing with the salsa and orange zest. Lay the tortillas on a cutting board, and spread the ranch mixture evenly over each one, leaving about a 1-inch border on all sides. Layer the turkey, avocado, lettuce, jicama, tomato, and scallions evenly over each tortilla, still leaving a border. Season with salt and pepper. Roll up like a pinwheel. Halve, and serve.
