Ingredients
- 2 slices Crusty Italian bread or ciabatta
- 4 slices Mortadella
- 2 slices Provolone cheese
- 1 tablespoon Butter
- 1 tablespoon Mayonnaise
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 1 handful Arugula or lettuce
- 2 slices Tomato
- 1 teaspoon Olive oil
- 1 pinch Salt

Instructions
Preheat a skillet over medium heat.
Spread butter evenly on one side of each bread slice.
Place both slices of bread, buttered side down, onto the skillet.
On one slice of bread, layer the mortadella and provolone cheese.
Allow the bread to toast gently and the cheese to begin melting, approximately 3 to 4 minutes.
Meanwhile, in a small bowl, mix mayonnaise and Dijon mustard until combined.
In another small bowl, toss the arugula or lettuce with olive oil, salt, and black pepper.
Once the bread is toasted and cheese melted, remove from skillet.
Spread the mayonnaise-mustard mixture on the non-buttered side of both slices.
Top the mortadella and cheese with the seasoned arugula or lettuce and tomato slices.
Close the sandwich with the second slice of bread, cut in half if desired, and serve.
