Ingredients:
Instructions:
- Ensure all ingredients are fresh.
- If you haven’t done so already, wash the lettuce leaf thoroughly under cold water and pat it dry with a paper towel.
- Slice the tomato if it’s not pre-sliced.
- If you prefer a crunchier sandwich, lightly toast the 2 slices of whole-wheat bread until they are golden brown. This should take about 1-2 minutes in a toaster.
- Take one of the slices of whole-wheat bread and spread 1 tablespoon of mayonnaise salad dressing evenly over one side. Use a butter knife to ensure an even layer for best flavor distribution.
- Lay the 3 oz of turkey ham evenly on top of the slice of bread with mayonnaise. Spread it out so that it covers the bread from edge to edge.
- Place the lettuce leaf on top of the turkey ham, ensuring it lays flat.
- Add the slice of tomato on top of the lettuce. If your tomato slice is large, you may want to cut it in half to fit the bread better.
- Take the second slice of bread and place it on top of the stack, pressing down gently to keep the ingredients together.
- Cut the sandwich in half diagonally or into rectangles if you prefer.
- Serve immediately for the best taste and texture.
Tips:
- For extra flavor, consider toasting the whole-wheat bread to add a touch of crunch.
- If you prefer a healthier option, substitute the mayonnaise with a light or low-fat version.
- Feel free to add additional vegetables like cucumber slices or pickles for more texture and taste.
- Season the tomato slice with a pinch of salt and pepper to enhance its flavor.
- For an extra layer of taste, try adding a slice of cheese such as Swiss or cheddar.
With just a handful of ingredients and a few minutes of your time, you’ve created a tasty and nutritious Turkey Ham Sandwich with Lettuce and Tomato. Whether you’re preparing it for a quick lunch at work or a simple meal at home, this sandwich is sure to hit the spot.
