Pour the mayonnaise mixture over the chopped ingredients in the large mixing bowl.
Sprinkle in the freshly cracked black pepper and salt. Gently stir all the ingredients together until evenly coated with the dressing.
Taste the mixture and adjust seasoning with more salt or pepper if needed.
Lay out the slices of whole grain bread. On four of the slices, place a layer of lettuce leaves.
