A deconstructed turkey club served on toasted bread with crispy bacon, fresh avocado, tomato, and a zesty ranch spread—no cooking required beyond toasting the bread.
Ingredients
- 4 slice whole wheat bread
- 6 ounce deli turkey breast, sliced
- 4 bacon, cooked and broken into pieces
- 1 avocado, halved, pitted, and sliced
- 1 tomato, sliced into rounds
- 2 cup lettuce, torn into leaves
- 0.25 cup ranch dressing
- 2 tablespoon mayonnaise
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 2 cornichons
Steps
- If using bacon, cook it in a skillet over medium heat until crispy, about 5 minutes, then drain on paper towels and break into pieces. (Note: Pre-cooked bacon strips can be used to keep this recipe fully no-cook; see explanation.)
- Toast the bread slices until golden brown and crispy, about 2–3 minutes.
- While bread toasts, slice the avocado in half lengthwise, remove the pit, and use a spoon to scoop out thin slices into a small bowl.
- Slice the tomato into 1/4-inch rounds.
- In a small bowl, mix the mayonnaise with 2 tablespoons of the ranch dressing, a pinch of salt, and black pepper.
- Arrange the toasted bread slices on a plate.
- Spread the ranch-mayo mixture evenly on each slice of toasted bread.
- Layer torn lettuce leaves on each slice.
- Arrange sliced turkey breast on top of the lettuce, distributing evenly between the two slices.
- Layer avocado slices over the turkey.
- Arrange tomato slices on top of the avocado.
- Top each slice with broken bacon pieces.
- Drizzle the remaining 2 tablespoons of ranch dressing over each sandwich.
- Garnish each plate with a cornichon and serve immediately.
