  • Whole Wheat Bread

How to Make Apple Autumn Sandwich

  1. Lay out two slices of your favorite bread.
  2. Spread 1 tablespoon of Miracle Whip on each slice of bread.
  3. Place 1 slice of cheese (about 1 oz) on one slice of bread.
  4. Top the cheese with 1 cup (approximately 100g) of shaved chicken breast.
  5. Add 1/4 cup thinly sliced red onion.
  6. Layer 1/4 cup julienned celery on top of the red onion.
  7. Arrange 1/2 cup thinly sliced apples (about 1 medium apple) over the celery.
  8. Carefully place the other slice of bread on top of the apples.
  9. Spread a very thin layer of butter on the outside of both slices of bread.
  10. Toast in a toaster oven or under a broiler until the bread is golden brown and the cheese is melted and slightly bubbly (approximately 3-5 minutes). Watch carefully to prevent burning.
  11. Slice in half and serve immediately and enjoy!

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Chef's secret: layers of flavor make a dish truly memorable! Consider what a little extra something could bring – perhaps a touch of acidity like a good vinegar or citrus zest, a hint of smokiness from paprika, a bit of umami from mushrooms or soy sauce, or a sprinkle of toasted nuts for texture. Experiment and taste as you go!
