Ingredients
- 2 slices Whole grain bread
- 4 ounces Turkey breast, deli-sliced or cooked
- 2 slices Turkey bacon, cooked
- 1.5 tablespoons Low-fat Greek yogurt
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 2 leaves Romaine lettuce leaves
- 2 slices Tomato, sliced
- 0.25 whole Avocado, sliced
- 0.125 teaspoon Salt
- 0.125 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 spray Olive oil cooking spray
Directions
Step 1
Cook the turkey bacon: Heat a nonstick skillet over medium heat. Spray the pan lightly with olive oil cooking spray. Add the turkey bacon slices and cook for 2-3 minutes per side or until crispy. Transfer to a paper towel to drain excess oil.
Step 2
Prepare the sandwich spread: In a small bowl, combine the low-fat Greek yogurt and Dijon mustard. Stir until smooth and set aside.
Step 3
Assemble the sandwich base: Take one slice of whole grain bread and spread half the yogurt-mustard mixture evenly over it.
Step 4
Layer the sandwich toppings: Place romaine lettuce leaves on the bread slice, followed by sliced turkey breast, cooked turkey bacon, tomato slices, and avocado slices. Sprinkle with a pinch of salt and black pepper to taste.
Step 5
Top and complete the sandwich: Spread the remaining yogurt-mustard mixture on the second slice of bread and place it on top of the sandwich fillings.
Step 6
Optional: Toast the sandwich in the skillet. Lightly spray the skillet with olive oil cooking spray and toast the sandwich for 1-2 minutes per side over medium-low heat until the bread is golden and crisp.
Step 7
Serve immediately: Cut the sandwich in half if desired and enjoy while fresh!
