Forgotten Turkey Sandwich

I had planned to start my pilgrimage with a nice homemade Turkey sandwich instead of that awfulness (1 definitely not a sandwich 2 possibly not even animal or vegetable) that you can buy for $5 on the Northwest flight. I had also planned to, you know, actually Lock The Car before leaving it in the LAX lot for two nights. Neither of those came true; sandwich got left in fridge at home, car got left unlocked. Neither of those turned out badly, though...

Dinner last night was said Turkey sandwich. It was awesome. I think I will go back and revise the ingredient post to include green onions.

Lay down the following ingredients on top of one another:
Standard beginning:
Toast (whole wheat or TJ's flax+friends)
mayo
black pepper
sprouts
New fangled addition:
1cm-length cuts of green onion. don't separate the layers. just put about 4-7 of those bad boys somewhere in the spouts
Next three ingredients, order unknown:
3 slices Turkey
7mm slices of ripe heirloom tomato
green leaf lettuce, enough to cover with 2 layers of leaf
Finish:
a bit of yellow mustard
toast

Now, I don't know whether aging the sandwich in a gladware container for 3 nights is essential, but it sure didn't hurt. garnish with a little spicy hummus dip and crackers. man that was good.

apartment update. unless the winds blow an unexpected surprise my way, this will be my house. the first floor is me.

the house is cute. the sandwich sounds good. Do you actually measure out 7mm slices of the tomats?
