Main Ingredients

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Cook the Bacon

    In a skillet over medium heat, cook the bacon slices until crispy, about 5-7 minutes. Flip occasionally for even cooking. Once cooked, transfer to a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess grease.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Vegetables

    Wash the lettuce leaves and pat them dry with paper towels. Slice the tomato into thin rounds and season with salt and pepper to taste.

  3. 3

    Toast the Bread

    While the bacon is cooking, toast the bread slices in a toaster or on a skillet until golden brown.

Assembly

  1. 4

    Spread Mayonnaise

    On one side of each slice of toasted bread, spread 1 tablespoon of mayonnaise.

  2. 5

    Layer the Ingredients

    On two slices of bread with mayonnaise, layer the lettuce, followed by the tomato slices, and then the crispy bacon.

  3. 6

    Complete the Sandwich

    Top with the remaining slices of bread, mayonnaise side down, to create a sandwich. Cut in half if desired.
