Instructions

Step 1: In a small bowl, combine 1/4 cup mayonnaise with 1 tbsp finely chopped fresh chives, 1 tbsp finely chopped fresh dill, 1/4 tsp black pepper, and a pinch of salt. Stir until well mixed to create the herb mayo.
Step 2: Lay out 8 slices of whole wheat sandwich bread on a clean surface. Spread about 1 tbsp of the herb mayo evenly over each slice.
Step 3: On 4 slices, layer 3 oz of roasted turkey breast slices evenly, followed by 3 tbsp cranberry sauce spread over the turkey, and top with 1 leaf of lettuce.
Step 4: Close the sandwiches with the remaining 4 bread slices, mayo side down. Press gently and cut each sandwich diagonally into halves. Serve chilled or at room temperature.
