Today is a first … something other than a cupcake, marshmallow or some other sugar based treat.

First of all … Stephanie, I am sorry for making this sandwich without you.  After we talked about it yesterday morning … I realized that I had all the ingredients at home … I made it … ate it … and loved it.  In fact I just made another one for lunch today … and loved it again.  If you are still speaking to me … call me and I’ll make one for you!

Now that I have gotten that off my chest … let me tell you about this sandwich.

A few years ago, I was in San Francisco the day after Thanksgiving.  Boudin Bakery is known for their sourdough bread … it is soooo good.  The turkey and cranberry sandwich caught my eye … but I wasn’t so sure about the onion and lettuce.  I like turkey and cranberry together … even had it with cream cheese (also yummy). Let me just say … I was pleasantly surprised.  It was wonderful!

This is what you will need …

• Sourdough bread (I buy Boudin at Costco)
• Sliced turkey
• Red onion
• Romaine lettuce
• Cranberry sauce
• Mayonnaise (I like light)

I know that you probably don’t need instructions on how to make a sandwich … but I took the photos … so here it goes …

Spread cranberry sauce on one slice of bread and mayonnaise on the other …

Layer turkey and red onion on the cranberry side …

Add the lettuce …then top with other slice of bread …

Eat the whole sandwich and think about Stephanie … I hope she got lunch yesterday.
