Finely chop the lean cooked ham and add it to a mixing bowl.
Dice the celery, dill pickles, and green onion finely, then add them to the bowl with the ham.
Add the low-fat Greek yogurt and Dijon mustard to the bowl. Stir until all ingredients are well combined.
Season the ham salad mixture with black pepper, adjusting to taste.
Lay out the slices of whole wheat bread. Place a lettuce leaf on top of each slice.
Slice the tomato into even, narrow slices and place a few slices on two of the pieces of lettuce-lined bread.
Spoon half of the ham salad mixture evenly onto each of the two tomato-topped slices of bread.
Top each with the remaining lettuce-lined bread slices to form sandwiches.
Serve immediately or wrap and refrigerate for up to 24 hours for a chilled sandwich.
