Ingredients
  

4 large croissants

8 oz deli-sliced turkey breast

8 oz sharp cheddar cheese, sliced

8 slices of crispy bacon

1 ripe avocado, sliced

1 cup fresh spinach leaves

2 tablespoons Dijon mustard

1 tablespoon mayonnaise

Salt and pepper to taste

Optional: hot sauce for extra kick

Instructions
 

Start by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C).

    Slice each croissant in half lengthwise, but do not cut all the way through. You want them to open like a book.

      In a small bowl, combine the Dijon mustard and mayonnaise to create a flavorful spread. Spread a thin layer of this mixture on the inside of each croissant.

        Lay down two slices of turkey on the bottom half of each croissant, followed by two slices of sharp cheddar cheese.

          Place two slices of crispy bacon on top of the cheese in each croissant.

            Add a few slices of avocado and a handful of fresh spinach leaves on top of the bacon in each croissant. Season with a little salt and pepper.

              Close the croissants gently and place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

                Bake in the preheated oven for 10-15 minutes or until the croissants are golden brown and the cheese has melted.

                  For those who enjoy a little heat, drizzle some hot sauce inside the croissant before serving.

                    Remove from the oven, let cool for a few minutes, and enjoy warm!
