Directions

Step 1

Begin by toasting 3 slices of whole grain sandwich bread until golden brown.

Step 2

Slice the tomato into thin slices and set aside.

Step 3

Thinly slice the red onion and rinse it under cold water to mellow the flavor; set aside.

Step 4

Peel and pit the avocado, mash it slightly, and add a pinch of salt and black pepper.

Step 5

Mix together the Dijon mustard and dairy-free mayonnaise in a small bowl.

Step 6

Place one toasted bread slice on a clean work surface or plate. Spread a generous layer of the mustard-mayonnaise mixture over this first slice.

Step 7

Layer 2 slices of turkey, followed by 1 lettuce leaf, and some tomato slices.

Step 8

Add the second slice of bread on top of this stack. Spread a layer of the avocado mash.

Step 9

On this second slice, layer 2 slices of ham, 1 slice of dairy-free cheddar cheese, some onion rings, and the remaining lettuce and pickles.

Step 10

Top with the third slice of bread. Spread the remaining mustard-mayonnaise mixture on this last slice.

Step 11

Carefully insert a toothpick through each of the four corners of the sandwich to keep it stable as you slice it.

Step 12

Cut the sandwich diagonally into four quarters.

Step 13

Garnish each quarter with a black olive skewered onto a toothpick.

Step 14

Serve immediately and enjoy the layers of creamy, savory, and crunchy textures.
