Ingredients
Scale
- 2 slices of sourdough bread
- 4 ounces roasted turkey breast, sliced
- 2 ounces brie cheese, sliced
- 2 tablespoons cranberry sauce
- 1 tablespoon butter
- Fresh arugula or spinach (optional)
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Preheat a skillet or griddle over medium heat.
- Spread butter on one side of each slice of sourdough bread.
- On the unbuttered side of one slice, layer the roasted turkey, brie cheese, and cranberry sauce. Add a handful of fresh arugula or spinach if desired.
- Season with salt and pepper to taste, then top with the second slice of bread, buttered side facing out.
- Place the sandwich in the preheated skillet and cook for 3-4 minutes, or until the bread is golden brown and the brie begins to melt.

- Remove from the skillet, slice in half, and serve warm.
