Cook time: 20 minutes
Servings: 2
Ingredients
- 8 bacon slices
- 4 bread slices
- 0 optional butter lightly spread
- 4 tablespoons mayonnaise
- 4 leaves lettuce large
- 2 tomato large, sliced
- 0 to taste salt
- 0 to taste pepper
- 4 bacon slices
- 2 bread slices, mayonnaise side down
Instructions
- Place the 8 slices of bacon in a large skillet over medium heat. Cook until crispy, turning occasionally to ensure even cooking. Transfer the cooked bacon to a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess grease.
- While the bacon is cooking, toast the 4 slices of bread in a toaster or under a broiler until golden brown. If you prefer, you can also lightly butter the bread before toasting.
- Spread about 1 tablespoon of mayonnaise on one side of each slice of toasted bread.
- On two of the slices, layer 2 large leaves of lettuce, 2-3 slices of tomato, and 4 slices of bacon. Season the tomato slices with a little salt and pepper for extra flavor.
- Top with the remaining slices of bread, mayonnaise side down. Cut the sandwiches in half diagonally for easier eating. Serve immediately with your favorite side, like chips, pickles, or a simple salad.
