Instructions

Preheat and Warm
If desired, you can wrap the croissant in foil and warm it in a preheated oven at 350°F for approximately 4 minutes, or just until it is warm and inviting. -
-
Prepare the Croissant
Split the warmed croissant in half horizontally and spread a thin layer of Dijon mustard on the bottom half, adding a zesty kick to your sandwich. -
Layer Fresh Ingredients
Begin layering your sandwich by placing a crisp leaf of lettuce on the mustard-covered bottom half. Follow this with a slice of Swiss cheese, several slices of ripe tomatoes, and creamy avocado. For added crunch, layer in slices of zucchini or cucumber, and finish with some fresh mushroom slices. -
Create the Dressing
In a small bowl, combine the mayonnaise with a splash of milk and either dried dill or freshly chopped basil. This creamy dressing will bring all the flavors together beautifully. -
Optional Additions
If you like a bit of extra texture, sprinkle some fresh sprouts over the layered vegetables for added crunch and nutrition. -
Assemble the Sandwich
Spoon the creamy dressing generously over the vegetable filling, ensuring that every layer gets a touch of that delightful flavor. Place the top half of the croissant back on to complete your sandwich. -
Serving Suggestion
This recipe makes one satisfying serving, perfect for a light lunch or snack. -
Tips for Customization
Feel free to substitute any of your favorite fresh vegetables in place of the tomatoes, zucchini, cucumbers, or mushrooms.
