Something new from Tastefully Simple - the kit contains just enough spices for you to use for the recipes supplied. In the ingredients, it will be listed as identified in the recipe. However, I will give you an estimated amount if you want to make it using your "leftover" spices. In this recipe, we didn't fix it as a sandwich but as a patty.
Ingredients:
2 Tbsp Dried Tomato & Garlic Pesto Mix
2 Tbsp water
2 1/2 tbsp olive oil, divided
1 Tbsp grated Parmesan cheese
1/2 c mayonnaise
1 1/2 lbs lean ground turkey
1/2 c plain panko bread crumbs
1 large egg, beaten
6 slices mozzarella cheese
4 ciabatta rolls or hamburger buns, toasted
lettuce leaves, tomato slices, optional
Instructions:

In large microwave-safe bowl, combine first 2 ingredients with 1 1/2 tablespoons oil. Microwave on high 30 seconds. Let cool. Stir in Parmesan cheese. Place half the pesto in small bowl and mix with mayonnaise. Salt and pepper as desired. Set aside.

Add turkey, bread crumbs and egg to the remaining pesto in the large bowl. Salt and pepper as desired. Form into 6 patties.

In large skillet, heat remaining 1 tablespoon oil over medium high heat. Add patties. Pan-fry, turning occasionally, until internal temperature reaches 165 degrees F on an instant-read food thermometer, about 8-10 minutes. Top with cheese slices.
Place on toasted rolls. Top with pesto mayonnaise, lettuce, and tomatoes, if desired.
Makes 6 servings. Serve with Italian Fries (recipe later).
