The combination of poultry, apples, and cheese in a sandwich is nothing new - but always delicious. I skip the apple butter and use spinach instead of arugula and even so, this sandwich is great. I like Granny Smith apples with brie cheese and either shredded chicken or turkey on whole wheat sourdough or rye.

Time: 25 minutes. Apple butter used as a spread makes these grilled turkey sandwiches special, and apple slices add a little crispness.
