My grandmother was an amazing cook, who brought new life to leftovers. I've tried to do the same here in these creamy, mushroom-packed sandwiches.

Turkey Mushroom Sandwich Bowls

Average Rating: 3.5

TOTAL TIME: Prep/Total Time: 30 min.
YIELD: 4 servings.

Ingredients

  • 4 French rolls
  • 1/4 cup butter, melted
  • 1-1/2 cups sliced fresh mushrooms
  • 1 medium onion, thinly sliced
  • 2 tablespoons canola oil
  • 1/2 cup dry vermouth or chicken broth
  • 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon pepper
  • 1-1/4 cups heavy whipping cream
  • 4 cups cubed cooked turkey
  • Minced fresh chives

Instructions

  • 1. Cut a 1/2-in. slice off the top of each roll; set aside tops. Hollow out centers, leaving 1/4-in. shells (discard removed bread or save for another use). Brush tops and inside of rolls with butter; place on a baking sheet. Bake at 325° for 10-15 minutes or until lightly browned.
  • 2. Meanwhile, in a large skillet, saute mushrooms and onion in oil until tender. Add vermouth, stirring to loosen browned bits from pan. Bring to a boil; cook until liquid is almost evaporated.
  • 3. Combine the flour, salt, pepper and cream; stir until smooth. Stir into skillet; bring to a boil. Reduce heat; cook and stir for 1-2 minutes or until sauce is thickened. Stir in turkey; heat through.
  • 4. Spoon into hollowed rolls; garnish with chives. Replace tops.
