Description
A quick and nutritious Honey Mustard Turkey Avocado Sandwich featuring lean turkey breast, creamy avocado, and a flavorful honey mustard spread, perfect for a satisfying lunch or light dinner.
Ingredients
Scale
Bread
- 2 slices whole-grain or sourdough bread
Filling
- 4 oz sliced turkey breast (lean and deli-style)
- 1/2 ripe avocado, sliced
- 1 leaf Romaine lettuce (or any preferred leafy green)
- 1 slice Swiss cheese (optional)
Spread and Seasoning
- 2 tablespoons honey mustard
- Salt and pepper, to taste
Instructions
- Prepare the Honey Mustard Spread: In a small bowl, mix the honey mustard with a pinch of salt and pepper. Adjust the amount of honey mustard based on your taste preference to achieve the desired balance of sweet and tangy flavors.
- Assemble the Sandwich: Spread a generous layer of the prepared honey mustard spread on one side of each slice of bread. On one slice, layer the turkey slices evenly, followed by the sliced avocado, Romaine lettuce leaf, and Swiss cheese if using, ensuring an even distribution for balanced bites.
- Complete the Sandwich: Place the second slice of bread on top with the honey mustard side facing the filling. Press down gently to keep the sandwich components together without squashing the avocado or bread.
- Serve: Cut the sandwich in half diagonally or down the middle as preferred. Serve immediately for the best freshness, optionally accompanied by a side of chips or fresh vegetables for a complete meal.
Notes
- Use ripe avocado for creaminess but not overripe to avoid mushiness.
- Choose whole-grain bread for added fiber and nutrients.
- Feel free to substitute turkey with chicken breast for variation.
- Swiss cheese is optional; substitute with any mild cheese or omit for a dairy-free option.
- This sandwich is best enjoyed fresh to maintain bread texture and avocado quality.
