Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) or set the broiler to high.
Lightly butter one side of each bread slice using the 2 tablespoons of butter. Place the bread, buttered side down, on a baking sheet.
In a small bowl, mix the mayonnaise and Dijon mustard. Spread this mixture evenly over the unbuttered side of each bread slice.
Lay 2 slices of turkey over the mayo-mustard layer on each piece of bread.
Add a slice or sprinkle shredded cheddar cheese on top of the turkey, evenly distributing the cheese across both slices of bread.
Place a slice or two of tomato on top of the cheese layer. Sprinkle with a pinch of salt and freshly ground black pepper.
Transfer the baking sheet to the preheated oven or broiler. Bake or broil for 3-5 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly (keep a close watch if broiling to avoid burning).
Once done, remove the tray from the oven and let the toasts cool slightly. Garnish with chopped parsley if desired.
Slice the toasts diagonally if preferred and serve warm. Enjoy your Turkey Cheese Toast!
