Directions

3. In a small bowl, combine a heaping tablespoon of cottage cheese with about 1 teaspoon of Dijon mustard (adjust to taste).
4. Spread the cottage cheese–Dijon mixture over the turkey layer.

Servings and timing

• Servings: Makes one sandwich (you can easily multiply for more).
• Prep time: About 5 minutes. No cooking required!

Storage/Reheating

• Storage: Best eaten immediately. Tomatoes release moisture, so leftovers can become soggy. If needed, store components separately (tomato, turkey, cheese mixture) in airtight containers in the fridge for up to 1 day.
• Reheating: Not applicable this is served cold and fresh.

FAQs

Are there any side dishes that go well with it?
