—

2 tbsp.
Butter, melted
2 tbsp.
Canola oil
3–4 oz.

Directions

• In a skillet over medium heat or a griddle set at 350°F, brush the cooking surface with a mixture of the melted butter and canola oil, and coat well
• Grill both sides of the bread until golden brown and cooked thoroughly in the center, about 3 minutes per side
• Arrange the French toast into a casserole - 2. While the French toast is cooking, warm the turkey on the grill (do not overheat), then immediately place it on top of the hot French toast.
- 3. Ladle the hot Swiss Cheese Sauce over the turkey and French toast.
- 4. Arrange the crisp bacon crisscrossed over the sauce.
- 5. Over the center of the bacon, mound the Tomato & Italian Parsley Salad.
- 6. Serve.
