Instructions

  1. Step 1: Spread 2 tbsp softened goat cheese evenly on one slice of 2 slices multigrain sandwich bread. Spread 3 tbsp cranberry chutney on the other slice.
  2. Step 2: Layer 6 oz roasted turkey breast slices evenly on top of the goat cheese spread. Add 1/2 cup fresh baby spinach over the turkey.
