Ingredients

• 8 slices sourdough sandwich bread
• 8 slices sliced deli turkey breast
• 1 large ripe avocado
• 0.5 None lemon
• 2 tablespoons mayonnaise
• 4 leaves butter lettuce
• 1 large tomato
• 0.5 medium cucumber
• 0.25 None red onion
• 1 teaspoon olive oil
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 0.25 teaspoon black pepper

Directions

Step 1

Mash the avocado in a small bowl using a fork until smooth. Squeeze in the juice of half a lemon and mix in the mayonnaise. Add a pinch of salt and black pepper, then stir well to combine. Set aside.

Step 2

Slice the tomato into thin rounds, the cucumber into thin slices, and the red onion into very thin rings.

Step 3

Lay out the slices of sourdough bread on a clean work surface. Drizzle a small amount of olive oil over one side of each slice. This will help keep the bread slightly crisp and enhance the flavor.

Step 4

Spread the avocado mixture evenly on one side of 4 bread slices.

Step 5

Layer the sandwich starting with a piece of butter lettuce on top of the avocado spread. Then, evenly distribute the turkey slices, tomato slices, cucumber slices, and red onion rings.

Step 6

Place the remaining slices of sourdough bread on top, olive oil side facing out, to complete the sandwiches.

Step 7

Cut each sandwich diagonally and serve immediately. Enjoy your refreshing Summer Turkey Sandwiches!
