Ingredients

2 tablespoons butter
4 slices sourdough or thick, crusty bread of choice
2 tablespoons dijon mustard
4 slices cheese cut in half
6 to 7 oz sliced turkey
2 to 4 tomato slices
½ cup fresh baby spinach
2 to 4 strips cooked bacon cut in half

Instructions

Place 4 slices of sourdough bread on a cutting board and butter one side of each slice. Flip the bread over and spread the dijon mustard over the 4 slices.
Place 2 half slices of cheese on each slice of sourdough bread.
Divide the turkey into 4 portions and place 2 portions on 2 of the 4 slices of bread.
Divide the bacon, spinach, and tomato in half and place each half on 2 of the 4 slices of bread. Finish off with the rest of the sliced turkey and close the sandwiches with the bread with sliced cheese.
Heat a skillet over medium-low heat. Cook until bottom bread is toasted for 3 to 4 minutes. Flip and cook on the other side, placing something heavy on top or press down with a spatula for another 3 to 4 minutes.
