Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Turkey Mixture

    In a large bowl, combine the ground turkey, mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, salt, and black pepper. Mix until well combined.

  2. 2

    Cook the Turkey

    In a skillet over medium heat, add 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Once hot, add the turkey mixture and cook for about 6-8 minutes, or until fully cooked, breaking it up with a spatula as it cooks.

  3. 3

    Assemble the Melt

    On two slices of whole grain bread, evenly distribute the cooked turkey mixture. Top each with two slices of Swiss cheese.

  4. 4

    Toast the Sandwich

    In the same skillet, add the remaining tablespoon of olive oil. Place the assembled sandwiches in the skillet, cover, and cook for 3-4 minutes on one side until golden brown. Carefully flip and cook for an additional 3-4 minutes until the other side is golden and the cheese is melted.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Remove the sandwiches from the skillet. Slice the tomato and place it on top of the melted cheese along with the lettuce leaves. Serve hot.
