Description

Imagine biting into a Turkey and Avocado Sandwich where the sourdough is perfectly toasted to a golden, shattered crisp. You first hit the creamy, buttery avocado that melts across your tongue like silk, providing a rich base for the entire experience. Then, the succulent, thinly sliced turkey breast provides a satisfying protein punch that feels incredibly light yet deeply hearty. Vibrant, green microgreens add a refreshing earthy crunch that wakes up your palate with every mouthful. Every bite of this Turkey and Avocado Sandwich offers a colorful explosion of freshness that makes healthy eating feel like a decadent treat.


Ingredients

Scale

2 slices Artisan Sourdough Bread
46 ounces Roasted Turkey Breast
1/2 fruit Ripe Hass Avocado
2 thick slices Heirloom Tomato
1/2 cup Microgreens or Sprouts
1 tablespoon Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1 teaspoon Dijon Mustard
1/2 teaspoon Raw Honey
Sea Salt & Black Pepper to Taste


Instructions

  1. Begin by heating a cast-iron skillet over medium heat. Brush both sides of your sourdough slices with high-quality Olive Oil. Place the bread in the pan and sear until the surface is deeply golden and emits a nutty, toasted aroma
  2. In a small bowl, scoop out the flesh of half an avocado. Use a fork to gently mash it, leaving a few small chunks for texture. Stir in a pinch of sea salt and a squeeze of fresh lemon juice
  3. Spread a thin layer of Dijon mustard mixed with a tiny drop of Honey on the bottom slice of toasted bread
  4. Drape the thinly sliced turkey breast over the mustard, folding it back and forth to create air pockets
  5. Place your thick heirloom tomato slices directly on top of the turkey and season with salt and pepper. Add a handful of microgreens
  6. Spread your seasoned avocado mash on the top slice of toasted sourdough, gently pressing down to marry the layers together
  7. Slice the sandwich diagonally with a sharp serrated knife and serve immediately

Notes

For gluten-free, use a gluten-free loaf or collard green wraps.

To prevent avocado from browning, mix with lemon juice before use.
