Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 8 slices Sourdough bread
- 12 oz Cooked turkey breast (thinly sliced)
- 4 slices Cheddar cheese (sliced)
- 4 slices Swiss cheese (sliced)
- 4 tbsp Butter
- 4 tbsp Mayonnaise
- 2 tbsp Dijon mustard
- 1 large Tomato (thinly sliced)
- 1 large Avocado (sliced)
- 0.5 Red onion (thinly sliced)
- 4 pieces Lettuce leaves
- 0.5 tsp Salt
- 0.25 tsp Black pepper
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or foil for easy cleanup.
Spread 1/2 tablespoon of butter on one side of each slice of sourdough bread. Lay four slices, butter side down, on the prepared baking sheet.
In a small bowl, mix mayonnaise and Dijon mustard until combined. Spread the mixture evenly over the unbuttered side of the bread slices on the baking sheet.
Layer each sandwich with 3 ounces of sliced turkey, 1 slice of cheddar cheese, 1 slice of Swiss cheese, thin slices of tomato, avocado, and red onion. Sprinkle with salt and black pepper to taste.
Top each sandwich with a piece of lettuce and place a second slice of bread on top, buttered side up.
Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the bread is golden and crispy, and the cheese is melted.
Remove the sandwiches from the oven and allow them to cool for 1-2 minutes before slicing each in half. Serve immediately and enjoy!
