Preparation

  1. 1

    Cook the Bacon

    In a skillet over medium heat, cook the bacon slices until crispy, about 6-8 minutes. Flip them occasionally for even cooking. Once done, remove from skillet and let drain on paper towels.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Vegetables

    While the bacon is cooking, rinse the lettuce and pat dry. Tear the lettuce leaves into manageable pieces. Slice the tomatoes into thick slices.

Assemble the Sandwich

  1. 3

    Toast the Bread

    In a toaster or on a griddle, toast the slices of bread until golden brown.

  2. 4

    Spread Mayonnaise

    Once the bread is toasted, spread 1 tablespoon of mayonnaise on each slice of bread.

  3. 5

    Layer Ingredients

    On two of the slices of bread, layer the crispy bacon, followed by the lettuce pieces, and then the tomato slices. Season the tomatoes with salt and black pepper.

  4. 6

    Complete the Sandwich

    Top with the remaining slices of bread, mayonnaise side down, to complete the sandwich.
