1
Prep the Ingredients
Start by slicing the avocado and tomato. Remove the pit from the avocado and scoop the flesh out with a spoon. Cut it into thin slices. Slice the tomato into rounds.
2
Prepare the Pesto Aioli
In a small bowl, mix together the mayonnaise and pesto until well combined. Set aside.

3
Layer the Ingredients
On one slice of bread, layer the sliced turkey breast, avocado slices, tomato rounds, lettuce leaves, and smoked gouda cheese.
4
Spread the Aioli
Spread a generous amount of the prepared pesto aioli on the other slice of bread.
5
Join the Sandwich
Carefully place the slice of bread with the aioli on top of the layered ingredients to form a sandwich.

6
Grill the Panini
Preheat a panini press or a skillet over medium heat. If using a skillet, you may want to use a little oil or butter to prevent sticking. Place the sandwich in the press or skillet and cook for about 3-5 minutes, or until the bread is golden brown and the cheese is melted.
7
Serve
Once the panini is cooked, remove it from the heat, slice it in half, and serve immediately.
