A New York Diner Blue Plate Special – Hot Open Turkey and Gravy Sandwich
Growing up on Long Island, we always had Diners all over the place.
In every town were at least one.
Now, in my town alone, there are four!
In Manhattan, it seems like there’s bunches on every street.
What is great about a Diner is there are so many things on the menu.
Everything comes out fresh and always so appetizing looking.
They serve breakfast all day long and have “Blue Plate Specials” daily.
A Hot Open Turkey happens to be my husbands favorite menu item to order for dinner.
We always grab some off his plate because they pile on the turkey and gravy.
You always get a choice of two sides. This past weekend was my husbands birthday and instead of going out he asked me to make him his favorite meal from our favorite diner around the corner.
This is the easiest recipe. At least the way I make it.
He even said he liked mine better. Not sure if he was really hungry or he meant it but, it really did taste good and my son and I enjoyed it just as much as the Diner.
Here you go, make this soon. It’s a winner!
