The Bobbie Sandwich Recipe packs turkey, stuffing, and cranberry sauce into a soft hoagie roll. Easy, delicious, and full of flavor.
Equipment
- Cutting board
- Serrated bread knife
- Small saucepan (not a necessity, only to warm the stuffing)
- Skillet (optional, to warm turkey in)
- Mixing spoon
- Toaster or oven (unless you want a slightly warm roll)
- Serving plate
Ingredients
For the Sandwich:
- 1 very large soft sub roll or hoagie roll fresh is preferred
- 1/3 to 1 cup cooked turkey breast sliced or shredded.
- 1/2 to 1 cup ready stuffing herbed, savory, all your favorites
- 4 oz. cranberry sauce homemade or purchased
- 1-2 tablespoons mayonnaise optional but very recommended
- A small portion of salt and black pepper.
- Sauce of turkey gravy added to make it richer
Optional Add-Ins:
- just a few greens spinach is good
- Crunchy cucumber slices.
- A hot sauce of gravy on the turkey.
- Toasted roll for crisp edges
- Sprinkled with some fresh herbs such as thyme or parsley.
Instructions
Heat the Turkey (But Not Included, Yet Incredible)
- Cold turkey works, but it is so much cozier to make the sandwich with a turkey that is warmed lightly.
- Put your turkey pieces in a low-heat skillet. Add one teaspoon of water or gravy and heat it up for 2-3 minutes. Don't cook it--just reheat it.
Warm the Stuffing
- Stuffing is most pleased when hot.
- Put it into a small saucepan with one tablespoon of water or broth and stir until soft and hot.
Prep the Roll
- Cut your sub roll, but not all the way in half-- consider opening a book.
- Spread inside a thin layer of mayo.
- Mayo makes everything wet and equal.
Layer the Turkey First
- Place the warm turkey in the bottom of the roll.
- Add salt and pepper to taste.
Add the Stuffing
- Pour the hot stuffing over the turkey.
- Press softly so as to fit it in.
Add the Cranberry Sauce
- Cranberry sauce on top of the stuffing.
- Do not blend it--have the layers shine on their own.
(Optional) Add a Touch of Gravy
- Should you desire a really homey, fall-in-your-mouth piece, pour on a tablespoonful of hot gravy over turkey, and then stuff. Not conventional, yet tasty.
Close and Serve
- Fold the roll and squeeze it in order to make everything to fall into place.
- You can cut it in half, or you can eat it whole (I prefer doing the latter).
