I am experimenting with TLT. I have long been to fat and old to eat bacon and last year I reluctantly dropped ham. Even more reluctantly dropping/radically cutting back alcohol has turned out to be the key (but that's another story) so last time I went shopping I picked up one of them frozen boneless turkey breast loaves to make turkey sammiches. First one was my standard lunch sammich--bread, brown mustard, lettuce, meat, onion, cheese (Swiss), and (in this case) tomato. It was fine but I ran out of mustard. So the next day it occurred to me to do a "TLT" and it was surprisingly good. You really don't miss the onion and the cheese. But I realized it wasn't 100% proper--I'd used cold turkey and hadn't toasted the bread. So today I tried toasting the bread and throwing the meat on the griddle for a bit. Gotta say I didn't think it was as good. So now I've got to try grilled meat on bread and cold meat on toast. Hell, and maybe variations of toast, grilled turkey, cheese, and onions. Culinary science is fun.
Speaking of which, I do a dish based on a recipe of Mom's, with pork chops in a mushroom sauce with peas and a baked potato. When I was done I still had ample mushroom sauce left over--as well as extra potatoes. The frozen turkey loaf came with a bag of frozen gravy mix so I nuked and cut up a few small potatoes and then dumped them and a slice or two of onions into the mushroom sauce, along with the bag of turkey gravy and nuked it a bit more. Oh, and threw in a few cubes of turkey breast for good measure. It was pretty tasty.
