For a quick lunch or dinner. You can make as many or as few as you need -- ingredients are 'per serving'.
Quick Turkey Divan
1 slice bread (I use whole grain wheat) toasted Frozen broccoli, cooked in microwave until tender crisp cooked Turkey 3 slices sharp cheddar
Cook the broccoli and toast the bread. Put the toast on a microwave safe plate, and cover with as much turkey as you want (I like to make mine about a layer or so thick). Top with cooked broccoli. Put cheese on top of the broccoli, and microwave until the cheese melts (about 1 minute on high). Serve and enjoy!
