OVEN GRILLED "CHEESE" SANDWICHES WITH ARUGULA, RED ONION AND TOMATO

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 500 degrees.
• Place a 10-inch nonstick pan with an ovenproof handle in the top third of the preheated oven. Allow the pan to heat for 3 to 5 minutes.
• Brush 1 of each of the bread slices with a slight coating of olive oil.
• Build the sandwiches by placing 2 slices of bread oil side down. Top each slice with half the cheese, spreading it evenly. Season with pepper and a few grains of salt. Top each sandwich with 1 of the remaining slices of bread, oil side up.
• Place the sandwiches in the heated pan and cook for 5 minutes. Turn them over and cook for 5 minutes more; remove the pan from the oven. Open the sandwiches and fill with the onion, tomato and arugula.

BEST EVER TURKEY ONION SANDWICH

Steps:

• Place the onions in a bowl and add a couple of teaspoons of water- I also like to add a boullion cube for extra flavor (+5 calories), but be careful with this if you're watching sodium.
• Cover with plastic wrap and nuke onions for about 3-5 minutes or until floppy.
• Meanwhile, spray one side of each slice of bread with the butter spray.
• Lay one piece spray-side down in a skillet and top with the cheese.
• You might want to add a squirt of spray over the cheese if the kind you use doesn't melt well.
• When the onions are done, take them out and spoon them over the cheese on the bread.
• Next, add the 3 slices of turkey.
• Spread the unsprayed side of the other slice of bread with the Miracle Whip (or fat free mayo) and the mustard.
• Place this slice on top- spray side up!
• Heat the skillet over medium heat, toasting the sandwich a couple of minutes on either side or until golden brown.
• When done, remove the sandwich, peel apart, stuff in the lettuce, smoosh back together, and CHOW DOWN!
• I included calorie and fat counts for every ingredient so that it will be easy to make substitutions and still know the exact nutritional information- I realize that not everyone loves onions as much as I do!
• Some other good ingredients are roasted bell peppers, mushrooms, tomato, or anything else you love!
