Tomato Sandwich

Tomato Sandwich

A tomato sandwich can be as simple as bread, mayo, and tomato slices, or you can use toast and add cheese (I guess that is a Kansas thing), add lettuce, avocado, bacon, etc. But if you add lettuce and bacon, then you have a BLT (which is an excellent sandwich), so we won't go there.

The Classic

  • 2 slices white bread, or a hamburger bun (which is my choice)

  • salt and pepper, as desired

Options

  • 2 slices white bread, toasted
  • 2 slices wheat bread, plain or toasted
  • 1 fresh avocado, sliced
  • 3-4 slices bacon, cooked crisp, but not used with the lettuce
  • 1 slice cheese, your choice
  • 1-2 lettuce leaves, but not used with the bacon
  • fresh parsley leaves
  • fresh sweet basil leaves, which sounds really good!
  • onion, sliced thin, think mandolin sliced thin
  • sardines

Instructions
 

The Classic

  • Place the tomato slices on a paper towel to absorb some of the juice.
  • Spread an ample amount of mayo on the bread slices or hamburger bun. Top a slice of bread with some tomato slices. Season with salt and pepper as desired.
  • Top with the other slice of bread. Enjoy.
