Main Ingredients
- 4 slices whole-grain bread around 1/2 inch thick
- 3 tbsp butter softened
- 1 cup sliced deli turkey thinly sliced
- 6 slices Swiss cheese
- 1 tbsp Dijon mustard or to taste
- 3 cups spinach fresh and washed

Preparation Steps
- Spread half a tablespoon of butter on one side of each bread slice.
- Place two slices of bread, butter-side down, in a preheated skillet over medium heat. Layer with mustard, cheese, turkey, and another slice of cheese.
- Top with the second slice of bread, butter-side up. Cook until the bread is golden brown and the cheese is melted, about 3-4 minutes per side.
- In a bowl, mix together olive oil, balsamic vinegar, oregano, and black pepper.
- Toss spinach, red onion, cherry tomatoes, and green olives with the dressing.
- Open the grilled sandwiches, add the salad mixture on top, close, and serve immediately.
Notes
For an extra zesty flavor, add a sprinkle of lemon juice to the salad just before serving.
