Recipe: Turkey Focaccia Sandwiches (using refrigerated pizza dough or frozen bread dough)

TURKEY FOCACCIA SANDWICHES

1 (10 ounce) can refrigerated pizza dough (or frozen bread dough, thawed)
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 teaspoon dried rosemary, crushed
1 teaspoon dried thyme
1/4 cup prepared pesto sauce
1 pound thinly sliced deli turkey breast
1 medium tomato, sliced
4 slices Vidalia onion or other mild sweet onion
4 slices smoked or regular provolone cheese

Unroll pizza dough and place on baking sheet coated with no-stick cooking spray. Pat into 10x12-inch rectangle. Use knuckles to dimple surface. Lightly brush with olive oil. Sprinkle rosemary and thyme over surface.

Bake in 400 degree F oven for 12 to 14 minutes or until golden brown. Cool slightly.

Cut into 8 pieces. Spread prepared pesto sauce on one side of each warm piece. Layer turkey, tomato, onion and cheese over pesto sauce on four pieces of focaccia. Place remaining focaccia, pesto-side down, on top and serve.

*If desired, one loaf of thawed frozen bread dough can be shaped and baked instead refrigerated pizza dough.
