Published 8/25/2023 Sandwiches are always a good idea! I love a loaded sammie on chewy-yet-crunchy bread and this turkey pesto sandwich variation is delicious. These grilled sandwiches are meant to serve a small group of people all at one time – they’re great for groups, BBQs, or dinner parties! Simply toast the bread cut-side down for 3-5 minutes before adding your sandwich fixings. To really elevate your turkey sandwich game, wrap each assembled sandwich in foil and pop them back on the grill to get everything warm and toasty.
What You Need for Turkey Pesto Sandwiches
We kept this sandwich simple yet packed with flavor. Here’s what you need:
Loaf of ciabatta bread Olive oil Pesto Sliced deli turkey Sliced provolone cheese Roasted red peppers Fresh spinach
Sandwich Variations
These turkey pesto sandwiches are totally customizable to your preferences and what ingredients you have on hand. Feel free to mix these up! Bread: We used ciabatta, but you could use a french loaf, Italian loaf, or any loaf you can get your hands on. Meat + Cheese: Don’t have turkey or provolone? Use your favorite kind of sliced deli meat and cheese. Vegetarian: Replace the deli meat with cucumbers, tomatoes, or any other delicious veggies. Pesto: Use any store bought pesto or make our basil pesto, kale pesto, or vegan pesto. Don’t skip it – pesto gives these sandwiches amazing flavor!

Turkey Pesto Sandwich Serving Suggestions
Everyone has different preferences when it comes to sandwich sides. We love these turkey sandwiches with classic potato chips, salad (like our strawberry spinach salad, broccoli salad, or cucumber tomato salad), and oatmeal cookies for a little sweet treat.
