Turkey Mango Club Sandwich

I made these sandwiches today, and they were most excellent.

I mostly followed the recipe from here

• 6 strips bacon 
  
  
• 1 large Hass avocado, halved, pitted, peeled, and chopped
• 2 tablespoons plain Greek-style yogurt 
  
  
• 1 tablespoon lime juice
• 1/8 teaspoon kosher salt
• 6 slices multigrain bread, toasted
• 4 lettuce leaves, trimmed to the size of the bread slices
• 1/2 large tomato, cut into 4 slices (season with salt and pepper)
  
  
• 8 slices roast turkey breast
• 1 ripe mango, peeled, pitted, and sliced thinly
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Line a rimmed baking sheet with aluminum foil, and line a plate with paper towels.
  Lay the bacon on the foil-lined pan and bake until golden and crisp, about 15 minutes. Remove the baking sheet from the oven and transfer the bacon to the plate to drain.
  In a blender, purée the avocado, yogurt, lime juice, and salt until smooth and creamy, about 25 seconds. Place the bread slices on a cutting board. Divide the avocado spread among the bread slices, spreading it into an even layer.
  Layer the sandwich ingredients on the sandwich: lettuce, tomato, turkey, bacon, and mango. Skewer the sandwiches with toothpicks, so they don't fall apart. 
• **I also chose to toast my bread ahead of time. 

Peanut Butter Dip

Here's an idea for a SuperBowl gathering (shape like a football), or you can make it like I did and just shape it round or whatever, leave off the frosting "laces".  I like it best with pretzels, for a salty sweet combo.

Ingredients

• ¼ cup butter, softened
• 4 ounces cream cheese, softened
• 1 cup peanut butter (your choice; crunchy or smooth)
• ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1 ½ cups powdered sugar (up to 2 cups if needed)
• ½ cup mini chocolate chips
• Optional: Chocolate sprinkles or chocolate chips for the outside of the football
• Optional: White chocolate or frosting for the football laces

Instructions

1. Cream butter, cream cheese, and peanut butter until mixed (using a hand-held mixer). Mix in vanilla.
2. Add powdered sugar, ½ cup at a time, and mix until combined. (If you want a stiffer mixture, add the extra ½ cup of powdered sugar.) Mix in chocolate chips.
3. Turn out mixture on a large sheet of waxed paper. Use your hands to form into a football shape.
4. Place the waxed paper onto your serving plate. (It helps if the plate has sides…less mess!) Cover in sprinkles or chocolate chips, pressing them into the surface a little so they stick. Pipe on the laces using melted white chocolate or some leftover frosting and chill until ready to serve.
5. Serving suggestion: pretzels, animal crackers, cookies.
