Sabrina’s Triple Decker Club Sandwich Recipe
Club Sandwiches are similar to a classic BLT (Bacon Lettuce and Tomato), but they have the addition of ham and turkey. The flavorful and tender meat pairs perfectly with the fresh tomato and crisp lettuce in each bite. The refreshing taste of Club Sandwiches is great to enjoy for lunch, or divided into quarters and served on a party tray. Make sure to stick toothpicks through the center of your sandwich so they don’t fall apart.

About this Recipe

Pairing Suggestions
Just like your favorite diner, you can pair this sandwich with soup or a salad. Try it with Classic Wedge Salad or Broccoli Cheese Soup Or keep it simple and serve it up with potato chips, Potato Salad, for the perfect lunch your family or guests will love!
How to Store
- Serve: Don’t leave the sandwich at room temperature for longer than 2 hours.
- Store: Store any leftover sandwiches wrapped tightly in plastic wrap to store in the fridge for up to 3 days. If you’re worried about the bread getting soggy, take the bread off. Store the sandwich filling in an airtight container and put it in fresh bread before serving.
- Freeze: Some of the sandwich fillings like lettuce and tomato won’t freeze well, but you can freeze the meat to assemble it in a sandwich later. It will keep well for up to 3 months.
Ideas to Serve
This is the perfect recipe to make after Thanksgiving to use any leftover Roasted Turkey. It’s a great way to reuse the extra meat without just reheating the same meal. Of course, you can also make a Club Sandwich any time of year with meat from the deli. Either way, it’s a delightful sandwich that’s sure to satisfy!
Variations
- Bread: Instead of the regular slices of white sandwich bread, you can use all different kinds of bread for this sandwich. Try sourdough, wheat bread, challah, French bread, or sub rolls.
- Dressings: You can spread different condiments over the bread instead of just mayo. Ranch, mustard, relish, or thousand island dressing could all taste amazing in this sandwich.
- Add-ins: Try different vegetables in your sandwich like pickles, bell peppers, spinach, onions, or cucumbers.
- Cheese: Instead of cheddar cheese you could use sliced provolone, mozzarella, gouda, Pepper Jack, or Swiss cheese.
