Betty's Turkey Brie Apricot Sandwich Recipe Video

In this video, Betty demonstrates how to make a Turkey Brie with Apricot Sandwich. This sandwich is my version of the sandwich Rick ordered in our recent visit to Jonathan's at Gratz Park in Lexington, Kentucky. (You can see the real version in the video of our trip to Jonathan's.) This is a delightful blend of roast turkey breast, brie cheese, and apricot preserves inside warm toasted bread and dressed with lettuce and tomato. (Note: Jonathan's version used peach preserves, rather than apricot preserves.)
