Ingredients

The following ingredients have 6 Servings
  • 5 tablespoons mayonnaise
  • 12 dinner or potato rolls, split
  • 9 oz deli sliced turkey
  • 3 Roma tomatoes, sliced
  • 12 slices cooked bacon, cut in half
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • 1 1/4 cups milk
  • 1/4 cup freshly grated parmesan cheese
  • 1/8 teaspoon paprika
  • 1/8 cup grated sharp cheddar cheese
  • salt and pepper

Instruction

  • Preheat the broiler.
  • Spread the mayonnaise on the cut sides of the rolls. Place the rolls, cut side up, on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Broil just until golden, 1-2 minutes. Reduce the oven to 200ºF.
  • Divide the turkey among the roll bottoms. Top each with a slice of tomato and 2 half-slices of bacon. Place the baking sheet back into the oven to keep warm while preparing the sauce.
  • Melt the butter in a small saucepan over medium heat. Whisk in the flour and cook for a minute or two, then whisk in the milk slowly. Add the parmesan and paprika. Stir until the sauce thickens, 4-5 minutes. Remove the saucepan from the heat and add the cheddar. Stir until the cheese has melted completely. Season the sauce with salt and pepper to taste.
  • Drizzle the cheese sauce over the sandwich bottoms (about 1 tablespoon each) and then add the roll top. Serve warm.
