Ingredients-
- Turkey Cutlets (I used six)
- 1 C panko Crumbs
- 6 slices of Tofutti cheddar cheese
- 6 slices of ham
- 1/4 C olive oil
- salt
- pepper
- italian seasoning
- toothpicks
First, season your panko crumbs to your liking in a shallow dish. I used salt, pepper, and italian seasoning. Add to the panko crumbs a teaspoon of olive oil. (This will give the panko crumbs a nice, crispy texture.)
Use a second dish for the 1/4 C of olive oil.
Lay cutlets out on a baking sheet and place a slice of cheese and ham on each one. Roll the cutlet up, with cheese and ham inside, and jam a toothpick through the roll to secure it. (Do i have some unaccounted hostility today? 'jam' was the only word coming to mind!)
Once all of the turkey cutlets are rolled and 'jammed' with toothpicks, dip them in olive oil and coat with panko crumbs. Place them into your baking dish of choice and bake for 15- 25 minutes. Baking time will depend on the thickness of your cutlets.
I do not have a picture of this recipe but I wanted to post it because I used tofutti cheese in it. I had previously posted about a rice vegan cheese but it was since recommended that I try the tofutti. True to the recommendation, it melts like a dream and has a much smoother, more cheese like texture. Micah also enjoys eating it by the slice, more so than the previous brand. What are your favorite recipes that use a cheese substitute?!
