This is the first recipe I created on my own. The pineapple brightens the flavor of the turkey mixture. Feel free to use rolls in place of the French bread. Ingredients:
1-1/4 cups finely chopped fresh pineapple |
2 plum tomatoes, finely chopped |
1/2 cup finely chopped onion |
1/3 cup minced fresh cilantro |
1 loaf (1 pound) french bread |
1 pound thinly sliced cooked turkey |
6 slices part-skim mozzarella cheese |
aioli: |
3/4 cup mayonnaise |
2 tablespoons lemon juice |
2 garlic cloves, minced |
1/2 teaspoon pepper |
Directions:
1. In a small bowl, combine the pineapple, tomatoes, onion and cilantro; set aside.
2. Cut bread in half horizontally; place cut sides up on an ungreased baking sheet. Bake at 350° for 4-5 minutes or until toasted; remove top half from pan. Layer bottom half with turkey and cheese. Bake 10-13 minutes longer or until turkey is heated through and cheese is melted.
3. Meanwhile, combine the aioli ingredients in a small bowl. Carefully spread over cheese; top with salsa. Replace bread top; cut into six slices. Yield: 6 servings.
