# How to Make It:

04 - On the first slice, arrange half the lettuce leaves followed by half the turkey slices. Season lightly with salt and pepper.
05 - Place a second slice of toast, mayonnaise-side down, over the first layer. Spread ½ tablespoon mayonnaise on the exposed surface.
06 - Layer tomato slices, crispy bacon, remaining lettuce, and remaining turkey. Season again with salt and pepper if desired.
