Bagel Sandwich with Turkey and Swiss Cheese
with chips / pickles

Active: 25 Total: 25

This meal caused quite a stir the first time it appeared, with some loving the simplicity and others declaring it too simple to even need a recipe. With Thanksgiving upon us, we can't think of a better time to reaffirm our love for an effortless, "back-pocket" meal. This meal was last featured in 2022.
Smarts #1: Serve chips on the side, but we wouldn't blame you a bit for adding a few to the sandwich for crunch!
Smarts #2: This is a perfect meal to serve DIY-style if you have visiting holiday guests.
