Are you planning a party or a tea get together but short on time? I’ve got a perfectly quick and scrumptious appetizer idea for you! This Turkey Croissan’wich Appetizer is very well loved in our family. Perfect way to add vegetables to picky children’s diets. They are not only attractive but taste great and healthier than most after school quick snacks. This is a big party tray recipe, but reduced, they’re also great to take to work for lunch or pack for a picnic to enjoy a sunny day outside. When you buy your croissants in bulk, freeze them in single sandwich bags and just pull them one at a time as needed to make this awesomeness. For as big of a family I have, I don’t have to wait until party time to make them… They go in a blink of an eye just as soon as I made them. Give them a try. 🙂
Ingredients you will need:
1 pack (12 count) – Croissants
1 pack – Green Leaf Lettuce
3 – Roma tomatoes on the vine
1 long – English cucumber
1 cup – Best Foods Mayonnaise
12 slices – American cheese
22 oz. or (36 slices) – sliced turkey breast
Salt and pepper to taste
24 wooden picks
Instructions:
Wash leaf lettuce and pat dry with paper towel. Wash and slice cucumber and tomatoes.
How to Assemble Croissan’wiches:
1. Cut each croissant in half leaving just the edges attached. Spread a teaspoon of mayonnaise on top half and place a slice of cheese onto the bottom half of the croissant.
2. Place one leaf lettuce on top of the mayonnaise (I cut off the hard end of the leaf, it folds easier). Then place three slices of folded turkey breast onto the cheese. Add two slices of cucumbers to each side of the sandwich, and then place a slice of tomato on top of each side of cucumbers. Sprinkle salt and pepper to taste.
3. Fold the sandwich together.
4. Insert wooden picks into each side of the sandwich.
5. Cut the sandwich in half.
6. Place croissan’wiches onto a large serving tray. Enjoy!

I just bought a large pack of these croissants at Costco over the weekend. I wrapped half of them in plastic wrap and stuck them in a large freezer bag. These sandwiches are very similar to what I make as well. Nothing can beat the taste of a croissant sandwich!
I agree with you. Thanks Katy! 🙂
wow, beautiful. I know what my kids will have after school today 🙂
I also have a big family, so sizes of your recipes just perfect for us. Keep them coming.
Blessing to your family 🙂
Thank you Tanya! Blessings to your family as well. 🙂
Can these be made ahead of time?
Some prep can be done ahead of time like slicing croissants, vegetables and stored in the container. For the fresh look and taste, you need to assemble shortly before serving.
