Start by preparing the avocado spread. Cut the avocado in half, remove the pit, and scoop out the flesh into a small bowl.
Add lemon juice, salt, and black pepper to the avocado and mash it until smooth. Set aside.
Wash and dry the lettuce leaves. Peel the cucumber and slice it into thin rounds. Slice the tomato into rounds as well.
Lay out the 8 slices of whole grain bread on a clean work surface.
Spread a layer of Dijon mustard on one side of each bread slice.
On four of the mustard-covered slices, layer a lettuce leaf, a few slices of cucumber, and a slice of tomato.
Fold two slices of turkey and place them on top of the tomato slice on each sandwich base.
Add a slice of cheddar cheese on top of the turkey.
Evenly spread the prepared avocado mash on the remaining four slices of bread.
Top each sandwich base with one of the avocado-covered slices, pressing gently to adhere.
Using a sharp knife, carefully cut each sandwich into four small squares or triangles to create mini sandwiches.
Serve immediately or cover and refrigerate until ready to enjoy.
