With its creamy stroganoff-style filling, this flavorful sandwich seems like something special. But at 98¢ a serving, it's an easy and economical choice for a casual weeknight meal. —Jillene Brown, Buckeye, Arizona

I made this today. what a keeper. I made one change, that was the bread. I used kaiser rolls, and sliced the top off (very thin) made a bowl out of the bottom. Followed the filling directions and was it good. Great for individual servings without having to cut the loaf. Fantastic!! I will be making again with a nice green salad

YOUR FAT AND SODIUM ARE WAY TOO HIGH! TRY TO USE 2% FAT CHEESES AND EITHER TURKEY OR SOY SAUSAGE TO LOWER THESE. WITH THE CREAM CHEESE, USE THE NO-FAT TYPE . ALSO, PAY ATTENTION TO THE BREAD TYPE/BRANDS THAT YOU USE. THEY VARY GREATLY IN THEIR NUTRITIONAL FACTS.I WOULDN'T TOUCH THIS RECIPE AS IT IS WRITTEN!
