Recipe

  • 4 stir in lime juice and allow chutney to cool.
  • 5 prepare the spicy mayo by combining the mayonnaise, chili powder, and cayenne pepper and stirring well.
  • 6 put together the sandwiches: slice the pizza crust into 8 equal rectangles. spread the spicy mayo on 4 of the rectangles and top with equal portions of the sliced havarti.
  • 7 top the remaining 4 rectangles with 1/4 of the turkey.
  • 8 add 3 tablespoons of the cranberry-jalapeno chutney on top of the turkey on each rectangle.
  • 9 top each cranberry and turkey rectangle with the cheese-topped rectangle and return the sandwiches to the pan.
  • 10 return pan to oven at 375 and bake until cheese has melted, about 2-3 minutes.
  • 11 cut each sandwich in half and serve with the remaining chutney. enjoy!
  • 12 bonus: did you end up with some leftover chutney? it makes a great appetizer when served over a square of cream cheese (adjust amount to how much chutney you have), and set out with crackers.
