Triple-Decker Club Sandwich

12 slices white bread
16 slices thick-cut bacon
1/3 cup mayonnaise
2 teaspoons fresh lemon juice
1/4 teaspoon salt
Pinch of white pepper
1/2 lb cooked turkey breast, thinly sliced
2 tomatoes, sliced
8 large iceberg lettuce leaves, torn into pieces

 

Toast the bread slices until golden brown. Set aside. In a large nonstick frying pan over medium heat, cook the bacon, turning once, until crisp, 4-6 minutes. Transfer to a plate lined with a double thickness of paper towels and set aside. In a small bowl, stir together the mayonnaise, lemon juice, salt and white pepper, mixing well.
Assemble the bacon, lemon mayonnaise, turkey, tomatoes and lettuce around a large work surface before you begin to make the sandwiches. Lay the bread slices on the work surface and spread them evenly with the lemon mayonnaise. Top 4 of the bread slices with an equal amount of the turkey, followed by half of the lettuce. Top the lettuce with a second slice of bread, mayonnaise side up. Place an equal number of tomato slices and then 4 bacon slices on each sandwich, and top with the remaining lettuce. Place the 4 remaining bread slices, mayonnaise side down, on top. Press down gently to compact the sandwiches and secure them with toothpicks.
To serve, using a se knife, slice into halves or quarters, then transfer to individual plates. Serves 4

Philly Cheese Steaks

1 teaspoon olive oil
1 jumbo onion (12 oz.), thinly sliced
1 medium red pepper, thinly sliced
1 medium green pepper, thinly sliced
4 hero-style rolls, cut horizontally in half
8 ounces thinly sliced deli roast beef
4 ounces thinly sliced Provolone cheese

 

These sandwiches have all the flavor of the traditional Philadelphia treat, but take half the time; while the peppers and onion cook on the stove, the broiler is working, too.

In nonstick 12-inch skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat until hot. Add onion and peppers, and cook about 12 minutes or until tender and golden, stirring occasionally. Meanwhile, preheat broiler. Place rolls, cut sides up, on rack in broiling pan. Top each bottom half with one-fourth of roast beef and one-fourth of cheese. With broiling pan 5 to 7 inches from source of heat, broil 1 to 2 minutes, until cheese melts and bread is toasted. Pile onion mixture on top of melted cheese; replace top halves of rolls.
Yields: 4 sandwiches

1 egg, beaten. Take a glass measuring cup or bowl. Grease with butter and put the beaten egg in it.

Pop in the microwave for 1 minute- exactly. The egg will puff up! I love it like this!

While the egg is in the microwave, pop some bread in the toaster. Immediately after it comes out butter it or put mayo on it. Then put the egg on it and cheese. The cheese should melt without a problem.
