Notes
Make sure the avocado you are using is fully ripe. You can test its ripeness by pressing your thumb against its skin. If it’s hard, the avocado is unripe. If it is very soft, it is overripe and mushy. You should look for a firm yet soft feel.
You can switch ham with prosciutto as well.
You can use alfalfa sprout in your sandwich as well.
Lastly, you can customize the sandwich according to your liking.

The mayo spread is simple yet full of flavor thanks to the Dijon mustard and balsamic vinegar. Simultaneously, the sandwich itself contains ham as a protein and cheese to give the sandwich that delicious stretch and umph.
And the best part is you can customize it in any way. You can add pickles or jalapeno to give it a tangy and spiced up flair. Whatever you choose to add to your sandwich, be sure to include avocado, tomato, ham, and Romanian lettuce for extra freshness and crunch.
