Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) to slightly warm the baguette, if desired.
Slice the whole grain baguette in half horizontally using a serrated knife. Set aside the top half.
Spread the softened unsalted butter on the cut side of the bottom half of the baguette evenly.
On top of the buttered side, spread the Dijon mustard, ensuring it is well distributed for flavor.
Layer the low sodium ham slices evenly over the mustard.
Add the low sodium Swiss cheese slices in a single layer on top of the ham.
Place the tomato slices over the cheese, followed by a layer of mixed salad greens.
Place the top half of the baguette over the fillings to close the sandwich.
