Slice the baguette in half lengthwise. If it is particularly large, trim the ends to reach the desired length for easier handling.
In a small bowl, soften the butter if necessary and mix in the Dijon mustard until well combined.
Spread the butter-Dijon mixture evenly on both sides of the sliced baguette.
Layer 4 slices of vegetarian ham on the bottom half of the baguette.
Place the vegetarian cheese slices over the ham slices evenly.
Add another layer of the remaining 4 slices of vegetarian ham on top of the cheese.
Rinse and pat dry the lettuce leaves, place 2 leaves evenly on each side of the baguette over the ham.
Slice the tomato into thin rounds and layer them over the lettuce. Season with a pinch of salt and black pepper.
Place the top half of the baguette over the layered ingredients.
Slice the filled baguette into desired serving sizes, typically about 4-inch sections, and serve immediately or wrap in parchment for later.
