Smoked Turkey Sandwich

Instructions

1. Prepare the bread
   Lightly toast the bread slices until golden brown. Let them cool slightly before assembling the sandwich to prevent the greens from wilting.
2. Mix the spread
   In a small bowl, combine mayonnaise and Dijon mustard. Mix well until completely blended. This creates a flavorful spread that complements the smoked turkey.
3. Apply spreads and layer ingredients
   Spread the mayo-mustard mixture evenly on all bread slices. On two of the slices, layer the lettuce leaves, tomato slices, red onion, avocado slices, and Swiss cheese.
4. Add the turkey and bacon
   Arrange the smoked turkey slices evenly over the vegetables. If using bacon, place the bacon strips on top of the turkey. This creates the perfect balance of flavors and textures.
5. Complete the sandwich
   Drizzle a small amount of olive oil over the assembled ingredients, then top with the remaining bread slices, spread-side down. Press gently to compact the sandwich.
6. Slice and serve
   Using a sharp knife, cut each sandwich diagonally to create two triangular halves. Secure each half with a toothpick if necessary. Serve immediately with pickle spears or potato chips on the side.
