Cooking Steps
Wash and dry produce.
Halve, core, and thinly slice apple. TIP: If you have a lemon on hand, squeeze a few drops of juice on apple slices to prevent them from browning!
Trim, peel, and cut carrots into sticks (like fries; ours were 3 inches long and ⅓ inch thick).
Open cream cheese packet and empty into a small microwave-safe bowl. Cover tightly with plastic wrap and microwave until softened, 30-45 seconds. TIP: No microwave? No problem! Submerge sealed cream cheese packet in a bowl of warm water to soften.
Stir in dressing until combined.
Halve and toast ciabattas.
Evenly spread creamy honey mustard on bottom ciabatta halves; spread jam on top ciabatta halves.
Layer bottom ciabatta halves with apple and as much turkey as you like.
Close to form sandos.
To serve: Divide sandos and carrot sticks between plates and serve with hummus on the side for dipping.
To stash: Place two 10-inch pieces of parchment paper (four pieces for 4 servings) on a work surface with a long side facing you. Place a sando in the center of each piece of parchment. Working one at a time, fold up bottom side of parchment over sando, then fold left and right sides to the center. Carefully fold up sando in parchment until parchment seam is on the bottom. Halve wrapped sandos on a diagonal. (TIP: Use a serrated knife to easily cut through the parchment.) Refrigerate sandos, carrot sticks, and hummus in separate containers and pack as desired.

Reviews from our home cooks
So good! The sweetness of the fig jam with the turkey and mustard dressing are such a good combo.
Excellent flavor, love the easy prep. Even better when you toast the bread.
Great for travel day. It was both delicious & filling. Would love to have a similar dish in weekly selections. Suggestion: provide a slice of cheese with this meal.
Amazing! Simple and delicious, was the perfect sandwich for a hot day out.
Great flavor combinations I wouldn't have thought of on my own.
I loved it! Husband and the kids just wanted regular turkey and cheese sandwiches with apples, carrot and hummus on the side (they are not as adventurous with food). That just leaves the sauces for me to use on other sandwiches.
The apple in the sandwich added to the taste. So good!
I loved these. Just needed more fig jam or fresh figs would be nice.
Smaller carrots would be nice, the big ones were hard to cut
The turkey wasn't great- had a lot of additives like Carrageenan, which is gross and not fresh, so I had to use my own turkey which was annoying. I would love a whole grain bread option.
