📖 Instructions

1. Gather your ingredients: First, make sure you have all your ingredients ready. This includes your bread, sliced turkey breast, ripe avocado, mayonnaise (or a healthy alternative like Greek yogurt), lemon juice, salt, pepper, and any other toppings you desire (sprouts, lettuce, tomato, etc.).
2. Prepare the avocado: Halve the avocado, remove the pit, and scoop out the flesh. Place the avocado in a small bowl and mash it with a fork. Add a squeeze of lemon juice to prevent browning and season with salt and pepper. This step is crucial for that creamy, flavorful base.
3. Assemble the sandwich: Spread a thin layer of mayonnaise (or your chosen spread) on one or both slices of bread. This will add moisture and flavor to the sandwich.
4. Add the avocado: On one slice of bread, spread the mashed avocado evenly. Make sure to cover the entire surface for maximum avocado goodness. The color should look vibrant.
5. Layer the turkey: Place the sliced turkey breast on top of the avocado. Use enough turkey to create a substantial layer, but don't overdo it. If you want, you can add a sprinkle of salt and pepper to the turkey.
6. Add additional toppings (optional): If you're using additional toppings like sprouts, lettuce, or tomato, now's the time to add them. Arrange them on top of the turkey layer.
7. Top it off: Place the other slice of bread on top of the toppings, mayonnaise-side down (if you spread mayo on both slices).
8. Slice and serve: Using a sharp knife, carefully slice the sandwich in half. This makes it easier to handle and eat. Serve immediately and enjoy your delicious Turkey and Avocado Sandwich! You can also cut them into quarters for appetizers.
9. Wrap for later: If you're making the sandwich ahead of time, wrap it tightly in plastic wrap or parchment paper to prevent the bread from drying out. Store it in the refrigerator until you're ready to eat.
