Elevated and Fast Focaccia Sandwiches

This is what we eat when we need a quick, delicious dinner that's WAY better than fast food.


We have back to school open house night tonight and I know we are going to be tight on time. When life gets hectic, we all need quick and easy meal options that don't sacrifice flavor. That's where these Homemade Focaccia Sandwiches come in! They're a lifesaver on busy nights, and they taste so much better than anything you could grab at a fast-food joint.


The Secret Ingredient:

The star of this recipe is the Trader Joe's Focaccia Bread. It's a game-changer! The soft, airy texture and subtle flavor provide the perfect base for your favorite toppings. These sandwiches are fast and they taste like something you would get at your favorite cafe. Thanks to This Trader Joes Focaccia Bread, which is so good!


Grab your favorite toppings and assemble this sandwich in minutes. Don’t skip the honey mustard and when I have a few extra minutes, I toast the bread.



Customize Your Creation:

The beauty of these sandwiches is their versatility. You can assemble them with your favorite ingredients and create a new flavor combination every time. Here are a few ideas:

  • Classic Combo: Ham, cheese, and mayo

  • Veggie Delight: Roasted vegetables, hummus, and feta cheese

  • Spicy Kick: Grilled chicken, salsa, and avocado


A Few Tips:

  • Don't Skip the Honey Mustard: This adds a touch of sweetness and tanginess that complements the savory ingredients.

  • Toast for Extra Crunch: If you have a few extra minutes, toasting the bread gives it a nice crispy texture.

  • Get Creative with Toppings: Experiment with different ingredients to find your perfect combination.


These Homemade Focaccia Sandwiches are a quick, delicious, and satisfying meal that's perfect for busy weeknights.Give them a try and let me know what you think!


No affiliation with any brand... these are just my personal favorites :)


Elevated and Fast Focaccia Sandwich Recipe:

  • Focaccia Bread (I used TJ's Focaccia Bread with Roasted Tomato & Parmesan)

  • Your favorite Deli Turkey (I use cracked pepper from Di Lusso or honey roasted from Butterball!)

  • Spinach

  • Bacon

  • Sliced Cheese: We love Havarti or Mozzarella on these!

  • Honey Mustard (We love Inglehoffer Honey Mustard)

  • Hellman's Mayo


Instructions:

  1. Slice: Carefully slice the focaccia bread in half horizontally.

  2. Spread: Spread a layer of honey mustard on one half of the bread.

  3. Layer: Top with a generous amount of deli turkey, then top with spinach and cheese, then bacon.

  4. Add Mayo: Spread Hellman's mayonnaise on the other half of the bread.

  5. Combine: Place the top half of the bread on top of the bottom half.

  6. Toast OR ENJOY: Either dig in to your sandwich or toast the sandwich in a panini press or skillet until heated through and the bread is golden brown.
