This was a very yummy play on a hot brown with a mind to using my leftovers! They were reminiscent of the original but lighter and more sophisticated with the Italian touch. We ate them up!

It’s so silly when people give one star without even trying a recipe.

Served them as appetizers for Thanksgiving. Delicious!

I am from Kentucky and I can tell you that this is not a Hot Brown.  Hot browns have turkey with a cheese sauce, a slice of tomato and a slice of bacon.  There is no mustard or gravy in the sandwich.

Delicious!
