"I don't usually post recipes I have not tried, but I came across this from Better Homes and Gardens,10/2007, and wanted to get it saved on Zaar. I can already taste my lunch tomorrow. Yum! This original recipe is to make four sandwiches, so if you are cooking for one you will have to adjust."

I was very interested in trying this sandwich. I used cherry jelly and veggie bacon. It turned out good and I enjoyed it! I used gala apple. Thanks seesko! Made for PRMR game.

Hi there seesko, made these sandwiches and they came out fantastically! Unfortunately, I couldn't follow the recipe as posted as I didn't have peach preserves (personal preference) and had to use apricot preserves and instead of cayenne, I used crushed red pepper flakes. Used the whole grain bread & used applewood bacon, and used a Granny Smith apple. We enjoyed these thoroughly! Thank you for posting, Diane :)
