My Hyper-Fixation Lunch!
I’m hooked on a sandwich from my local bakery-cafe and pick it up way too often, so I made my own with leftover turkey.
The results? Fantastic. The flavors and textures are spot-on, and the sauce seals the deal. I mix mayo, mustard, and sour cream until it tastes just like the cafe’s, simple and perfect. Swap in any fillings you like, but don’t skip that sauce!

- Sourdough bread: Go for a good sturdy artisan sourdough you enjoy.
- Provolone cheese: Mild and creamy; a great complement to the meats.
- Bacon: Feel free to use microwave bacon for quicker prep.

- Lettuce: Fresh, crunchy leafy lettuce or Romaine.
