Ingredients
1 teaspoon stick margarine or butter
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 1/2 cups low-fat (1 percent) milk
1/2 cup (2 ounces) shredded reduced-fat sharp cheddar cheese
1 tablespoon dry sherry
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon ground red pepper
1/8 teaspoon onion powder
1 (2-ounce) jar diced pimento, drained
6 (2-ounce) slices Texas toast, lightly toasted
12 ounces thinly sliced cooked turkey breast
12 (1/4-inch-thick) slices tomato (about 2 tomatoes)
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
2 bacon slices, cooked and crumbled
1/4 teaspoon paprika
Directions
- To make sauce: melt margarine in a small saucepan over medium heat. Stir in flour; gradually add milk, stirring with a whisk until blended. Cook until thick (about 10 minutes), stirring constantly. Remove from heat; add cheese, stirring until cheese melts. Stir in sherry and remaining ingredients. Yield: 2 cups
