Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 slices whole wheat bread
- 2 tablespoons low-fat mayonnaise
- 1 tablespoon mustard
- 4 slices turkey breast
- 2 slices low-fat cheddar cheese
- 4 lettuce leaves
- 1 medium, sliced tomato
- 1 small, sliced cucumber
- 1 small, thinly sliced red onion
- 4 slices pickles
- 4 slices roast beef
Instructions
Start by toasting the whole wheat bread slices until golden brown to give your sandwich a nice, crispy texture.
In a small bowl, mix the low-fat mayonnaise and mustard to create a tangy spread.
Lay out two slices of the toasted bread and spread a generous layer of the mayonnaise mixture on each.
Place two slices of turkey breast on one of the bread slices, followed by a slice of low-fat cheddar cheese.
Top the cheese with a couple of lettuce leaves, a few slices of tomato, cucumber, and some thin slices of red onion for a fresh crunch.
Add two slices of pickles for an extra burst of flavor.
Next, layer the slices of roast beef over the vegetables.
Take the other two slices of bread, spread more of the mayonnaise-mustard mixture on them, and place these slices on top of the layered ingredients.
For the other sandwich, repeat the layering process with the remaining ingredients.
Once the sandwiches are assembled, press them gently to ensure they hold together well, and cut each sandwich in half diagonally.
Serve the Low Fat Dagwood Sandwich immediately for a fresh and filling meal.
