Ingredients
  

8 slices of deli turkey breast

1 large apple (such as Fuji or Granny Smith), cored and thinly sliced

4 slices of sharp cheddar cheese (or your cheese of choice)

1 tablespoon Dijon mustard

1 tablespoon honey (optional, for sweetness)

Fresh arugula or spinach leaves (for added crunch)

Salt and pepper to taste

Toothpicks or small skewers (for securing)

Instructions
 

Prepare the Ingredients: Begin by coring the apple and slicing it into thin slices (about 1/4 inch thick). Set the slices aside in a bowl of water with a squeeze of lemon juice to prevent browning if preparing in advance.

    Spread the Mustard: Lay out one slice of turkey on a clean cutting board. Spread about 1/2 teaspoon of Dijon mustard evenly over the turkey slice.

      Layer the Cheese and Apple: Place a slice of cheddar cheese over the mustard-coated turkey. Next, add a couple of apple slices on top. You can also sprinkle some salt and pepper for extra flavor.

        Add Greens: Place a few arugula or spinach leaves on top of the apple slices for a fresh crunch.

          Roll It Up: Starting from one end, carefully roll the turkey around the fillings tightly. Make sure everything is secure.

            Secure the Roll-Up: Use a toothpick or small skewer to hold the roll-up together, piercing through the center to ensure it doesn't unravel.

              Repeat: Continue this process with the remaining turkey slices until all the ingredients are used.

                Serve: Arrange the roll-ups on a platter. If desired, drizzle with honey for a touch of sweetness or serve with extra mustard on the side.
