Turkey Club with Feta & Spinach-Yogurt Spread
I love a great club sandwich. The original classic club sandwich was created at the Union Club in New York City at the end of the 19th century. While it’s remained a classic ever since, it’s also gone through countless tweaks and transformations, with every chef adding his or her own twist. Mine is a Greek recipe for a club sandwich. You wouldn’t have expected anything less, right? Instead of mayo, spread a little of the spinach-tzatziki on the bread. I think you’ll be pleasantly surprised at this Mediterranean diet-inspired recreation of an all-American classic!
