Ingredients

• 4 slices sourdough bread
• 8 slices turkey breast slices
• 4 slices sharp cheddar cheese
• 2 large eggs
• 1 cup baby spinach
• 1 avocado
• 2 tablespoons Greek yogurt
• 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 0.25 teaspoon black pepper

Directions

Step 1

Begin by boiling two eggs. Place them in a saucepan, cover with water and bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Once boiling, reduce heat to medium-low and simmer for 9 minutes.

Step 2

While eggs are boiling, slice the avocado in half, remove the pit, and scoop the flesh into a small mixing bowl. Mash the avocado with a fork until smooth, then mix in the Greek yogurt, Dijon mustard, salt, and pepper.

Step 3

Drain the boiled eggs and run them under cold water to cool quickly. Peel and slice the eggs thinly.

Step 4

Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add baby spinach and sauté for about 2 minutes or until wilted. Remove from heat and set aside.

Step 5

Toast the sourdough slices until golden brown and crisp.

Step 6

To assemble the sandwiches, spread a generous layer of the avocado mixture on two slices of toasted sourdough.

Step 7

Layer each open-face sandwich with four slices of turkey breast, half of the sautéed spinach, sliced boiled egg, and two slices of cheddar cheese.

Step 8

Top with the remaining slices of sourdough bread.

Step 9

Optional: For melted cheese, place assembled sandwiches in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for 5 minutes or until the cheese just begins to melt.

Step 10

Slice the sandwiches in half and serve immediately.
