Lay out the slices of bread on a clean surface.
Spread one tablespoon of dairy-free margarine on one side of each bread slice.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat.
Place two slices of bread, margarine side down, onto the skillet.
On each slice, layer 2 slices of ham, a slice of dairy-free cheese, and half of the tomato slices.
Sprinkle a pinch of salt and pepper over the toppings.
Add a lettuce leaf on top of each assembled sandwich base.
Spread a thin layer of mustard on the non-buttered side of the remaining slices of bread and place them on top of the sandwiches, mustard side down.
Press down gently with a spatula and cook for about 2-3 minutes, or until the bread is golden brown.
Carefully flip the sandwiches and continue cooking for another 2-3 minutes until the other side is golden brown and the cheese is melted.
Remove from the skillet, let them cool for a minute, then cut in half and serve warm.
