Begin by preheating a non-stick skillet over medium heat.
Add the turkey bacon slices to the skillet and cook for 2-3 minutes per side, or until crispy. Remove and place on a paper towel to drain excess grease.
Toast the whole grain bread slices to your desired level of crispiness using a toaster or oven.
In a small bowl, combine the low-fat mayonnaise or Greek yogurt with Dijon mustard, a pinch of salt, and a pinch of black pepper. Mix well to create a light and flavorful spread.
Lay one slice of toasted bread on a clean surface. Spread half of the mayonnaise-mustard mixture evenly across the surface.
Layer the turkey slices on top of the spread, followed by the cooked turkey bacon, lettuce leaves, and tomato slices.
Spread the remaining mayonnaise-mustard mixture on the second slice of toasted bread, then place it on top to complete the sandwich.
Cut the sandwich in half, if desired, and serve immediately. Enjoy your low-fat turkey and bacon sandwich!
