How to Make a Turkey Caesar Sandwich on Garlic Toast

The best part of this sandwich is that it’s made with warm garlic toast! and it’s SUPER easy to make!!

While you can enjoy this turkey sandwich any time using deli turkey, it’s a whole other level of good with leftover turkey from Thanksgiving!!

While the garlic bread slices are toasting in the oven, you want to mix up a little mayo, parmesan cheese, garlic, dijon and lemon juice for the spread.

Once the toast comes out of the oven, spread the mayo mixture on one side of each piece of warm toast.  Then pile up as much turkey as you want on four of the slices of toast add a tomato slice and lettuce and place the four remaining slices of toast spread side down on top and serve!  That’s it!!

Yes, your hands are going to get a little greasy holding on to a garlic toast sandwich……but that is the part that makes this sandwich SO DARN GOOD!!!

TRUST ME……if you like a turkey Caesar salad, you are going to love this Turkey Caesar Sandwich!!

What is Ceasar Salad?

According to What’s Cooking America the original recipe for Ceasar salad included “romaine (to add a slightly bitter touch), garlic, croutons,  Parmesan cheese, boiled eggs, olive oil and Worcestershire sauce.” Supposedly anchovies were added to the salad in 1926 and this version was called the “Aviator’s salad.” What’s Cooking America says that this version was so well-received that it became the standard and was renamed the “Caesar salad.”

In the 1930s, Caesar Salad was voted by the master chefs of the International Society of Epicures in Paris as the “greatest recipe to originate from the Americas in fifty years.”

Today the classic Caesar salad consists of romaine lettuce and croutons dressed with lemon juice, olive oil, egg, Worcestershire sauce, anchovies, garlic, Dijon mustard, Parmesan cheese, and black pepper.

Enjoy!!
