Grilled Turkey & Havarti with Apples, Spinach & Honey Mustard Dressing
I love a good sandwich, even in the fall and this one takes advantage of all the flavors of the season! Yummy buttery, crispy sourdough bread stacked with turkey, cheese, thinly sliced apples, spinach, a little bacon and a beautiful light honey mustard inspired dressing - it's just perfect!

Instructions
-
Combine and mix all dressing ingredients to combine, set aside. Preheat the oven to broil, setting the rack in the center position. If your broiler gets really hot like mine you should probably just heat it to 350 degrees.
-
Spread softened butter evenly over both sides of each bread slice. Arrange the buttered bread slices on a baking sheet and broil for 45–90 seconds, watching carefully until golden. Flip the slices and broil the other side until nicely toasted. Remove from oven.
-
Remove half of the slices of toasted bread from tray and set aside for now. On the remaining slices, spread mayo. Layer the turkey slices, thin apple slices, 2 bacon slices per sandwich, and a slice of cheese.
-
Return the sandwiches to the oven and broil for 30–90 seconds, just until the cheese melts. Watch carefully to avoid burning.
-
Remove from the oven. Top the melted cheese with a handful of spinach and drizzle with the prepared dressing. Add the reserved bread slices on top, press gently, and serve immediately.
Note
A recipe I saw from Chelsea's Messy Apron inspired this yummy fall sandwich. It is just a perfect way to make good use of the fall harvest and it's hearty enough to serve for dinner, too.
