Wash and pat dry the romaine lettuce leaves. Set them aside as your sandwich 'bread.'
Slice the tomato, red onion, and avocado. For the avocado, scoop the flesh out of the skin and slice into thin pieces or mash it lightly depending on your preference.
In a small bowl, mix the Paleo-friendly mayonnaise with lemon juice, salt, and black pepper to create a flavorful spread.
Lay two of the romaine leaves flat and spread a thin layer of the mayonnaise mixture over them.
Layer the sliced turkey breast, avocado, tomato, and red onion evenly on top of the romaine leaves.
Top with the remaining romaine leaves to complete the sandwich.
Carefully wrap the sandwich in parchment paper for easy handling, or secure it with toothpicks before serving.
