Instructions

Slice and Prep Pickles: Slice each dill pickle in half lengthwise and pat dry with a paper towel to reduce moisture.
Spread Condiments: Spread mayonnaise (or cream cheese) and mustard on the cut sides of the pickles.
Layer Ingredients: Layer lettuce, tomato, turkey or ham, and cheese on one pickle half.
Season and Assemble: Season with a pinch of salt and pepper, then top with the other pickle half to create a sandwich. Repeat for the second sandwich.
Serve or Wrap: Serve immediately, or wrap in parchment for a quick grab-and-go option.

Notes

For extra crunch, add red onion or a few slices of cucumber.
You can also hollow out the center of the pickles slightly to make room for more filling and reduce mess.
