Ingredients

One fresh, crispy head iceberg lettuce

Three to five thin slices of freshly roasted turkey breast (white meat only), room temperature

Three-fourths cup thousand island dressing (recipe to follow)

One thin slice of aged Swiss cheese

One fresh slice of Jewish or other mild (but flavorful) rye bread

One to two teaspoons butter, softened

Two slices of your favorite bacon

Slice of hard-boiled egg

Slice of tomato

Olive and parsley garnish

Directions

Butter rye bread and place on a large cold serving plate. Cover bread with Swiss cheese slice, followed by one or two slices of turkey. Take a nice large outer lettuce leaf from the head of iceberg and set aside. Slice the iceberg lettuce in a few large sections and arrange a section on top of the turkey and Swiss cheese.

Cover the open-face "sandwich" with big lettuce leaf. Top with several slices of turkey. Pour a very ample amount of dressing over the lettuce, allowing it to puddle slightly all around the plate. Place a slice of bacon and an olive on either side of sandwich mound. Place tomato slice and egg slice atop mound with parsley sprig. Serve immediately.
