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)
- 1 fresh tomato, sliced thick
- mayo, as needed
- 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
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.
with Lettuce
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 1-2 lettuce leaves, top with some tomato slices.
Top with the other slice of bread. Enjoy.
