It’s 30 Minute Thursday, friends!

Are you as excited as I am?

Not only is it the first Thursday in October, but it also marks four years since the hubster proposed to me one of the happiest days of my life.

He took me to a new spot in Rosemont (a Chicago suburb) with a big grassy park surrounded by restaurants and bars. In the summer, it’s alive with bands and festivals; in the winter, it turns into an ice rink. At night, the lights strung across the park make it magical.

We had dinner, grabbed drinks, and then, despite the unseasonably chilly weather, he suggested a walk through the park. Right in the middle, he got down on one knee—and the rest is history.

I love walking down memory lane, so thanks for coming along!

Now, let’s dive into this 30 Minute Thursday recipe.

This Turkey, Apple and Brie Panini is the ultimate fall-inspired sandwich, packed with fresh turkey, crisp Granny Smith apples, and creamy brie, all toasted until golden. It’s simple, fast, and bursting with sweet-and-savory flavor, making it perfect for lunch or dinner.

If you’ve never tried apples on a sandwich, now’s the time. Their slight tartness pairs beautifully with rich brie and savory turkey for a flavor combination that screams fall.

And let’s be real, can you ever go wrong with a panini? Ever since I made my Turkey Bacon Guacamole Panini, I’ve been hooked on using my panini press. This one comes together in just 10 minutes, which makes it a natural fit for 30 Minute Thursday!

Best of all, it’s easy to customize. Swap turkey for chicken, use gala apples instead of Granny Smith make it your own!

So, grab that panini maker, scoop up some fresh fall apples, and whip up this cozy Turkey, Apple and Brie Panini.
