Blueberry Chutney Heaven (i.e. grilled turkey sandwich)

After a much needed trip to Whole Foods, we came home with WAY too many things. I'm pretty sure we have enough organic fruit to feed 3 families of five, but we also picked up some items we don't usually buy. Much thanks goes to my dh for introducing me to blueberry chutney. (My next project is going to be making my own and probably many other flavors now that I know how much I love it). Anyway, I really wanted to eat this chutney in a sandwich, but being preggers and all I can't have deli meat unless it is heated (sounds gross to me, too) and that was the only meat in the house. So, I came up with this marvelous idea. Smoked turkey breast and dill havarti-GRILLED! This sandwich was so good that I didn't have time to take a picture. They disappeared. :) These are very easy to make, so here goes:  Between two slices of your favorite bread  (I used Nature's Promise flax and fiber),  place 3 to 4 slices of smoked turkey breast and a thin layer of dill havarti (or any other yummy, smokey flavored cheese). Next grill in a skillet just like you would any grilled cheese sandwich. I used a little bit of butter and grilled them over med-low heat so I could make sure mine was heated all the way through. While they are grilling, slice some onion very thinly and prepare your favorite greens. For these sandwiches I used Olivia's organic half and half baby spinach and mixed greens. After grilling both sides, remove from pan and immediately spread blueberry chutney on the inside of the slice of bread with no cheese on it and layer sliced onions and mixed greens. Put back together and enjoy! These sandwiches were so simple, yet delicious and beautiful. I will maybe make one again this week so I can add a picture. The blueberry layer with the greens on the golden bread is just gorgeous. These are simple enough to make any day, but I would consider serving them at a catered event because they just have a gourmet quality about them. Bon Appetit! Buon Appetito! Dobar Tek! Guten Appetit! Mahlzeit! Bon Apeti! Selamat Makan! Smacznego!
