Here’s a simple and delicious bacon and tomato sandwich recipe — classic, quick, and perfect for breakfast, lunch, or a snack. 🥓🍅🥪
Ingredients (per sandwich)
- 2 slices of bread (your choice: white, whole wheat, or sourdough)
- 2–3 slices of cooked bacon
- 2–3 slices of ripe tomato
- Lettuce leaves (optional)
- Mayonnaise or butter
- Salt and black pepper, to taste
Instructions
1. Cook the Bacon
- Fry bacon in a pan over medium heat until crispy, or bake at 400°F (200°C) for 15–20 minutes on a baking sheet.
- Drain on paper towels.
2. Prepare the Bread
- Toast the bread slices lightly (optional, but adds crunch).
- Spread mayonnaise or butter on one or both slices.
3. Assemble the Sandwich
- Place lettuce on one slice of bread (optional).
- Layer tomato slices on top. Sprinkle lightly with salt and black pepper.
- Add the cooked bacon.
- Top with the second slice of bread.
4. Serve
- Cut in half and serve immediately.
- Optional: serve with pickles, avocado, or a fried egg for extra flavor.
Tips
- Use ripe, juicy tomatoes for the best flavor.
- For a hot version, place the assembled sandwich in a panini press for 2–3 minutes.
- Swap bacon for turkey bacon or a plant-based alternative for a lighter version.
If you want, I can also give a gourmet version of the bacon and tomato sandwich with cheese, avocado, and a special sauce that tastes like a café sandwich.
Do you want me to do that?
