Start your day right with a tasty Apple Cucumber Brie Turkey Sandwich on wholegrain bread. It’s got crunchy apples, fresh cucumbers, creamy Brie, and lean turkey for a delicious combo. This sandwich isn’t just good for you—it’s a yummy way to kick off your morning with lots of flavor.

Enjoy it in the morning or prep it ahead for on-the-go — quick, easy, and packed with nutrients. It provides a healthy start in the morning and serves as a convenient option when prepared as a meal prep. The combination of crisp apple, refreshing cucumber, creamy Brie, and lean turkey not only makes it delicious but also ensures you get essential nutrients. Easy to assemble and perfect for a flavorful energy boost.

Store this sandwich in an airtight container to keep it fresh. The layer of lettuce between the ingredients, especially the cucumber, acts as a barrier and prevents moisture from reaching the other ingredients. In this respect, this sandwich is very suitable for preparing the evening before or in the morning and taking with you on the go or simply enjoying at home.

Print Recipe

Description

RECOMMENDED EQUIPMENT

  • sharp knife
  • cutting board
  • cheese grater
  • two medium pots
  • fine mesh strainer
  • hand blender

Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 2 shallots
  • 1-2 garlic cloves
  • 1 tbsp butter
  • 2 tbsp risotto rice
  • 200 grams parmesan (or grana padano)
  • 300 milliliter vegetable stock
  • 300 grams heavy cream
  • 70 milliliter dry white wine
  • salt & pepper to taste
  • truffle oil
  • fresh parsley

Instructions

PREPARATIONS

  • Slice the shallots into thin rings.
  • Peel the garlic and cut it into thin slices.
  • Finely grate the Parmesan.

INSTRUCTIONS

  1. Melt butter in a pot and sauté the risotto rice, shallots, and garlic for about 4 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they look glossy and smell amazing.
  2. Add broth and white wine to the pot, bring it to a boil, and let it reduce over medium heat for about 10 minutes until the liquid is halved.
  3. Pour in the cream, toss in the grated Parmesan, and stir gently over the lowest heat until the cheese is melted. Be careful not to overheat – it’s all about that smooth, creamy vibe.
  4. Once the risotto rice is soft, blend the soup with a hand blender until it’s silky smooth.
  5. Strain the soup through a fine mesh strainer into another pot. You’ll end up with a little clump of risotto and Parmesan left in the sieve that can be tossed and don’t forget to scrape off the bottom of the strainer for extra flavor! Season the soup with salt and pepper to taste.
  6. Serve with a few drops of truffle oil and a sprinkle of chopped parsley.

Imagine a delicious dip with crispy bacon, sweet caramelized onions, and tangy pickles. Mixed with yogurt, mayo, garlic, and a bit of dill, it’s a tasty combination. Perfect for dipping, every bite is like a simple fairy tale of flavor. You can create a lower-calorie and lower-fat version by replacing mayonnaise with yogurt entirely, opting for 0.1% fat yogurt, and substituting regular bacon with the low-fat one.

Make your gathering extra special with a tasty dip. Perfect for buffets or BBQs, serve it with bread, potato chips, or baguette slices. Every bite brings a mix of flavors, making it a hit for casual get-togethers or snack time.

For optimal storage of a yogurt-based dip, keep it in a sealed container in the refrigerator. This ensures its freshness and prevents the absorption of other fridge odors. Let the dip cool to room temperature before refrigerating. Avoid freezing, as this can alter the texture. When serving again, gently stir to restore the original consistency. Remember, yogurt-based dips are best enjoyed within a few days to savor their peak flavor and quality.

Bacon Pickles & Onion Dip

  • Author: Kimberly
  • Total Time: 15 min
  • Yield: 4 1x
Print Recipe

Description

RECOMMENDED EQUIPMENT

  • cutting board
  • sharp knife
  • small pan
  • medium bowl
  • spoon

Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 2 yellow onions
  • 4 pickles
  • 1 garlic clove
  • 150 grams greek yogurt
  • 3 tbsp mayonnaise
  • 125 grams bacon
  • 1 tsp dill (fresh or dried)
  • 1/8 tsp white pepper
  • 1/4 tsp salt

Instructions

  1. Place the bacon in a cold pan without adding any more fat and fry over a medium heat until crispy. If the bacon gets hot together with the pan and is not placed directly in a hot pan, the fat from the bacon will come out during frying.
  2. Meanwhile cut the onion and the pickles into very small pieces.
  3. Leave the excess fat from bacon in the pan and transfer the bacon to a medium bowl and set aside.
  4. In the same pan, fry the onion pieces in the bacon fat over a medium heat until golden brown until they start to caramelize slightly. Set the pan aside and allow the onion pieces to cool slightly.
  5. Add all the remaining ingredients to the bacon in the bowl and mix well. Season to taste with salt and pepper. The dip tastes best with a fresh baguette or potato chips.
