Ingredients

Scale

Pickle Cheese Bread

  • 1 cup shredded cheddar and Monterey cheese mix (divided)
  • 6 pickle slices

Sandwich Fillings

  • 5 slices turkey lunchmeat
  • 2 tomato slices
  • 1 avocado, peeled and sliced
  • 2 red onion slices
  • 2 tablespoons real mayonnaise
  • lettuce leaves

Garnish (optional)

  • minced parsley
  • small pickles

Instructions

  1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit to ensure it’s at the right temperature for baking the cheese crisps.
  2. Prepare Baking Sheet: Line a small baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking and make cleanup easier.
  3. Dry Pickle Slices: Lay the pickle slices on paper towels and gently pat them dry. Avoid squeezing them to retain their shape.
  4. Arrange Pickles on Pan: On the prepared baking sheet, line up three pickle slices so each slice touches the next, placing them about 2-3 inches apart. Repeat with the remaining three pickle slices on the same pan, creating two groups.
  5. Cover with Cheese: Cover each group of pickle slices evenly with ½ cup shredded cheese, ensuring the pickles are completely covered and form a square shape with the cheese.
  6. Bake the Cheese Bread: Bake in the preheated oven for about 20 minutes or until the cheese edges are golden brown and crispy, creating a crunchy cheese crust.
  7. Cool the Cheese Bread: Remove from oven and let cool for about 10 minutes to firm up and prevent it from falling apart when handled.
  8. Assemble the Sandwich – Bottom Layer: Place the cheese bread so that the pickle side faces inward. Spread 1 tablespoon of mayonnaise on each cheese bread piece and layer lettuce leaves on top.
  9. Add Turkey Slices: Roll each slice of turkey lunch meat and arrange them over the lettuce layer evenly.
  10. Add Vegetables: Top with tomato slices followed by red onion slices to add freshness and crunch.
  11. Top with Avocado and Parsley: Finish with avocado slices and a pinch of minced fresh parsley, then place the second piece of cheese bread on top to complete the sandwich.
  12. Garnish and Serve: Garnish the sandwich with a toothpick and a small pickle if desired, and slice the sandwich in half before serving. Enjoy this flavorful low carb sandwich!

Notes

  • Make sure to thoroughly dry the pickle slices to prevent excess moisture, which can affect the crispiness of the cheese bread.
  • Use a mix of cheddar and Monterey Jack cheese for the best melting and flavor combination.
  • You can customize the sandwich fillings to your preference or dietary needs.
  • Allow the cheese bread to cool properly before assembling to maintain structure.
  • For a gluten-free meal, ensure all other ingredients like turkey lunchmeat and mayonnaise are certified gluten-free.
