In a large mixing bowl, combine the mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, sweet pickle relish, lemon juice, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to create the dressing.
Add the cooked turkey, diced celery, chopped red onion, and fresh parsley into the bowl with the dressing. Stir until the turkey is evenly coated and the ingredients are well combined.
Taste the turkey salad and adjust seasoning with more salt or black pepper, if needed.
Lay out your slices of bread on a clean surface. Optionally, you can toast the bread for extra texture.
Place one lettuce leaf on four of the bread slices, followed by a scoop of the turkey salad. Spread it out evenly.
Layer a few tomato slices on top of the turkey salad, if desired.
Top with the remaining slices of bread to complete the sandwiches.
Serve immediately, or wrap the sandwiches in parchment paper to keep fresh for later.
