1
Cook the Bacon
In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the bacon slices until crispy, about 5-7 minutes, flipping halfway through. Once cooked, transfer to a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess grease.
2
Prepare the Toast
While the bacon is cooking, heat a separate skillet or griddle over medium heat. Place the Texas toast slices on the skillet and toast each side until golden brown, about 2-3 minutes per side.
3
Slice the Tomato
Wash the large tomato and cut it into thick slices.
4
Prepare the Lettuce
Wash and dry the lettuce leaves. Tear them into smaller pieces if necessary.

5
Spread the Mayo
Once the Texas toast is toasted, spread 1 tablespoon of mayonnaise on one side of each slice.
6
Layer Ingredients
On one slice of the toasted Texas toast with mayo, layer the crispy bacon slices, followed by the lettuce, and then the tomato slices.
7
Complete the Sandwich
Top with the other slice of Texas toast, mayo side down, to complete the sandwich.
