Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 slices Whole grain sandwich bread
- 2 slices Low-fat mortadella
- 1 slice Low-fat Swiss cheese
- 0.5 Avocado
- 1 small Tomato
- 1 handful Arugula
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 1 teaspoon Lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon Extra virgin olive oil
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt

Instructions
Begin by toasting the whole grain sandwich bread slices until they're golden brown and crispy.
While the bread is toasting, slice the avocado in half, remove the pit, and scoop out the flesh. Mash the avocado in a small bowl with lemon juice, salt, and black pepper until smooth and spreadable.
Slice the tomato into thin rounds.
Once the bread is toasted, spread a layer of the mashed avocado mixture on one side of each slice of bread.
On top of the avocado on one bread slice, spread the Dijon mustard evenly.
Layer the arugula over the mustard, followed by the tomato slices.
Place the slices of low-fat mortadella on top of the tomatoes.
Add a single slice of low-fat Swiss cheese over the mortadella.
Complete the sandwich by topping with the second slice of bread, avocado side down.
Cut the sandwich in half if desired and serve immediately. Enjoy your heart-healthy classic mortadella sandwich!
