Layering a sandwich is an easy way to make it more attractive. Use wholegrain, multigrain bread for the highest fibre content.
SERVES 4
PREP TIME 10 MINS
COOK TIME 0 MINS
Recipe Ingredients:
3 tbsp good-quality mayonnaise |
1 tsp Dijon mustard |
Salt and freshly ground black pepper |
Butter, softened, for spreading |
12 large slices multigrain bread |
2 handfuls salad leaves |
5.5 oz (150 g) thinly sliced turkey breast |
2 avocados, thinly sliced |
1/2 lemon |
Recipe Methods:
1 Mix the mayonnaise and mustard together, and season well. Butter eight slices of bread on one side only, and four slices carefully on both sides. |
2 Lay four of the single side-buttered slices on a chopping board, buttered-sides up. Top each slice with one-quarter of the salad leaves, pressing them into the bread gently. Lay one-quarter of the turkey on top of each and spread over a thin layer of the mayonnaise. |
3 Put a double-side-buttered slice of bread on each sandwich, then layer one-quarter of the avocado over each, drizzle with a little lemon juice, and season well. |
4 Top each with a final slice of bread, buttered-side down and press down well to hold everything together. Carefully trim the crusts off the bread and cut into halves on the diagonal to serve, or pack into a container for transportation. |
