Instructions
*Note*When I make this sandwich - I like to make it BIG. Amounts of ingredients will depend on how hearty of a sandwich you like. I used approximately a 1/4 pound sliced turkey, 4 slices of Swiss cheese and more coleslaw than most normal people would consume.
Melt butter in a skillet over medium heat.
Add both slices of bread to pan - not on top of each other.
Place cheese on each slice of bread, still open face.
Cook until cheese is melted and bottoms of bread are golden brown.
Remove bread and assemble sandwich - turkey on the bottom, top with coleslaw and a drizzle of thousand island dressing.
