Ingredients

• 4 slices sourdough bread
• 6 slices roasted turkey slices
• 4 slices aged cheddar cheese
• 1 cup baby spinach leaves
• 1 whole avocado
• 2 tablespoons mayonnaise
• 1 tablespoon whole-grain mustard
• 2 tablespoons butter
• 1 teaspoon kosher salt
• 1 teaspoon black pepper

Directions

Step 1

Begin by toasting the sourdough bread slices lightly in a toaster or on a dry skillet over medium heat. Set aside.

Step 2

In a small bowl, mash the avocado with a fork. Add kosher salt and black pepper and mix well to create a smooth spread.

Step 3

In a separate small bowl, mix the mayonnaise and whole-grain mustard together to create a tangy sandwich spread.

Step 4

Spread the avocado mixture on two of the toasted sourdough slices. On the other two slices, spread the mayonnaise and mustard mixture evenly.

Step 5

Layer the roasted turkey slices on top of the avocado-spread slices. Add the aged cheddar cheese slices over the turkey.

Step 6

Top the cheese with baby spinach leaves for a fresh crunch.

Step 7

Close the sandwiches by placing the mayonnaise-spread slices over the spinach, spread-side down.

Step 8

Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add the butter and let it melt to evenly coat the skillet.

Step 9

Carefully place the sandwiches onto the hot skillet and press gently using a spatula. Cook for 2-3 minutes on each side or until the bread is golden and the cheese has melted.

Step 10

Remove from the skillet, slice the sandwiches in half, and serve immediately. Enjoy your Grateful Bread Sandwich!
