## 👩‍🍳 How to Make the Amish Sandwich

1. **Start with fresh bread**
Slice your bread thick enough to hold all the fillings but soft enough to bite through comfortably.

2. **Spread the mayo or butter**
Generously spread homemade mayo or butter on both slices of bread. Amish cooking loves a rich, creamy base.

3. **Layer the fillings**
Add a layer of Swiss cheese, followed by the smoked ham or turkey slices. Top with lettuce, tomato slices, and pickles if you like.

4. **Season lightly**
A pinch of salt and freshly ground black pepper adds that simple but essential flavor boost.

5. **Assemble and serve**
Place the second slice of bread on top, press gently, and cut diagonally for that classic sandwich look.
