Why This Turkey Avocado Club Sandwich on Whole Grain is a Game Changer

Picture this: It’s a lazy Sunday afternoon, and I’m flipping through an old family cookbook. My eyes land on a simple turkey sandwich recipe, but something about it sparks an idea.

Whether you’re feeding a crowd or just craving something hearty yet healthy, this sandwich is your answer.

A Little History Behind the Club Sandwich

The club sandwich has been around since the late 1800s, first served in American hotels and restaurants. Originally made with chicken or turkey, bacon, lettuce, tomato, and mayo, it was considered a luxury item. Over time, people started adding their own twists, like swapping out white bread for whole grain or adding avocado for extra creaminess. My version keeps the classic charm but adds a modern, healthier spin. Trust me, once you try it, you’ll never go back to plain old turkey sandwiches!
