Chop the cooked turkey breast into small, bite-sized pieces and set aside.
Core and dice the Granny Smith apple into small cubes, leaving the skin on for added texture and color.
Thinly slice the celery stalks into small pieces.
Roughly chop the walnuts and toast them lightly in a dry skillet over medium heat for 2-3 minutes, stirring often, until fragrant. Let the walnuts cool.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the Greek yogurt, mayonnaise, lemon juice, salt, and black pepper. Stir until smooth and evenly mixed.
Add the chopped turkey, apple, celery, and toasted walnuts to the bowl. Toss gently until all ingredients are coated in the dressing.
Toast the sandwich bread, if desired, for added texture and flavor.
Lay a lettuce leaf on two slices of bread, then divide the turkey Waldorf mixture evenly onto the lettuce.
Top each sandwich with the remaining bread slices.
Cut the sandwiches in half if desired, and serve immediately. Enjoy!
