Ingredients
- 2 slices Low-sodium whole grain bread
- 3 oz Low-sodium cooked ham
- 1 slice Low-sodium Swiss cheese
- 2 leaves Lettuce leaves
- 2 slices Tomato
- 0.5 Avocado
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 0.25 teaspoon Freshly ground black pepper
Directions
Step 1
Begin by toasting the slices of low-sodium whole grain bread until they are golden brown and crispy. You can use a toaster or a skillet on medium heat.
Step 2
While the bread is toasting, mash half of an avocado in a small bowl with a fork until smooth. Optionally, add a pinch of freshly ground black pepper to the mashed avocado for added flavor.
Step 3
Spread the mashed avocado evenly on one side of each toasted bread slice. This will act as a creamy, healthy fat alternative to traditional sandwich spreads.
Step 4
Place the lettuce leaves on one of the slices, over the mashed avocado spread.
Step 5
Next, layer the 3 oz of low-sodium cooked ham evenly over the lettuce.
Step 6
Add the slice of low-sodium Swiss cheese on top of the ham.
Step 7
Place the 2 slices of tomato over the cheese. Sprinkle freshly ground black pepper for additional seasoning if desired.
Step 8
Spread 1 teaspoon of Dijon mustard on the second slice of bread, ensuring even coverage.
Step 9
Carefully close the sandwich by placing the mustard-covered slice of bread, avocado side down, on top of the tomatoes.
Step 10
Gently press down on the sandwich to help it hold together, then slice it in half if desired. Serve immediately and enjoy your flavorful low-sodium ham and Swiss sandwich.
