Whisking constantly, slowly stream in the milk until smooth and no lumps remain. Increase the heat to medium and continue whisking and occasionally scraping the bottom and sides of the saucepan with a rubber spatula until the sauce thickens and coats the back of a spoon, 3 to ⏱️ 4 minutes. Whisk in 1/3 cup of the parmesan, then the nutmeg, salt, white pepper, and a few dashes of hot sauce.

Preheat the broiler. Toast the bread under the broiler or in a toaster oven until golden. Arrange the toast in a single layer in a 9-by-13-inch baking dish. Divide the turkey evenly between the slices of toast and top each with 2 to 3 tomato slices. Spoon on the Mornay sauce to completely cover each piece of toast and sprinkle the remaining 2 tablespoons parmesan over top.
