50g
4 slices ham
110g
1/2 cup lettuce
24g
1 tbsp mayonnaise salad dressing
16g

Instructions:

1. Prepare Your Ingredients:
- Gather all the ingredients: white bread, ham, lettuce, and mayonnaise.
- If needed, wash and shred the lettuce into thin pieces.
- Ensure the ham slices are ready for assembly.
2. Toast the Bread (Optional):
- If you prefer a bit of crunch, you can lightly toast the slices of white bread until they are golden brown. This is an optional step based on your preference.
3. Spread the Mayonnaise:
- Take one slice of white bread and spread half of the mayonnaise evenly over one side using a butter knife or a spoon.
- Repeat with the second slice of bread using the remaining mayonnaise.
4. Layer the Ham:
- Lay two slices of ham evenly over the mayonnaise-coated side of the first slice of bread.
- Add the remaining two slices of ham on top of the first layer, creating a double layer for a heartier sandwich.
5. Add the Lettuce:
- Evenly distribute the shredded lettuce on top of the ham layers on the first slice of bread.
6. Assemble the Sandwich:
- Carefully place the second slice of bread (mayonnaise side down) on top of the lettuce to complete the sandwich.
7. Cut and Serve:
- If desired, use a sharp knife to cut the sandwich diagonally into two triangles or into halves for easier handling.
- Serve immediately and enjoy this simple yet delicious Ham and Lettuce Sandwich with Creamy Mayonnaise Dressing.

Tips:

- Toast the bread slices for added crunch and flavor.

- Use freshly cut lettuce to ensure it retains its crispiness.

- Consider adding a pinch of salt and pepper to the mayonnaise for enhanced taste.

- Feel free to add additional vegetables like tomatoes or cucumbers for extra freshness.

- Choose a high-quality ham for the best flavor.

- If you prefer a lighter option, use whole grain bread instead of white bread.
