Spread the mayo or smashed avocado on your bread or wrap.
Layer the turkey, then the egg or cheese.

Pack the crunchy veggies alongside in a container or zip-lock bag.
Make It Your Own
Four fillings that travel well.
Deli and Egg
Turkey or chicken deli, hard-boiled egg, micro greens and smashed avocado.
Healthy Chicken Salad
Curried chicken salad with celery and almonds. Half the recipe fills one sandwich.
Avocado and Egg Paste
Chopped egg and avocado with lemon and coriander.
Tofu and Green Pea Paste
The vegan option, with mint and lemon.
Notes
Look for deli meat with no nitrates and no added sugar (Applegate, True Story Foods).
Add pickles, sauerkraut, or kimchi. Fresh dill or basil. A smear of Dijon or hot sauce.
Wrap it tightly in parchment and it holds together in a bag all morning.
Pack the crunchy veggies separately so nothing goes soggy.
