    Buddy Cookbook

    List of Ingredients




    One fresh, crispy head iceberg lettuce
    Three to five thin slices of freshly roasted turkey breast (white meat only), room temperature
    Three-fourths cup thousand island dressing (recipe to follow)
    One thin slice of aged Swiss cheese
    One fresh slice of Jewish or other mild (but flavorful) rye bread
    One to two teaspoons butter, softened
    Two slices of your favorite bacon
    Slice of hard-boiled egg
    Slice of tomato
    Olive and parsley garnish

    Recipe



    Butter rye bread and place on a large cold serving plate. Cover bread with Swiss cheese slice, followed by one or two slices of turkey. Take a nice large outer lettuce leaf from the head of iceberg and set aside. Slice the iceberg lettuce in a few large sections and arrange a section on top of the turkey and Swiss cheese.
    Top lettuce with several slices of turkey.
    Cover the open-face "sandwich" with big lettuce leaf. Pour a very ample amount of dressing over the lettuce, allowing it to puddle slightly all around the plate. Place a slice of bacon and an olive on either side of sandwich mound. Place tomato slice and egg slice atop mound with parsley sprig. Serve immediately.
