Instructions
Place the two slices of gluten-free sandwich bread on a clean cutting board.
Spread the mayonnaise evenly on one side of both bread slices.
Spread the Dijon mustard on top of the mayonnaise on one slice of bread.
Layer the turkey breast slices evenly over the mustard-covered slice of bread.
Place the cheddar cheese slices on top of the turkey. Add the optional tomato slices if desired.
Close the sandwich with the second slice of bread, mayonnaise side down.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add half of the butter, letting it melt completely.
Place the sandwich in the skillet and cook for 3-4 minutes until the underside is golden and crisp.
Lift the sandwich with a spatula, add the remaining butter to the skillet, and carefully flip the sandwich onto the other side.
