Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Cook the Bacon

    In a skillet over medium heat, cook the bacon slices until crispy, about 5-7 minutes. Drain on paper towels to remove excess grease.

    Prepare the Vegetables

    Wash the lettuce leaves and pat them dry. Slice the tomato into thin rounds.

  3. 3

    Toast the Bread

    Toast the white bread slices until golden brown, about 2-3 minutes in a toaster or on a skillet.

Assembly

  1. 4

    Spread Mayonnaise

    Spread 1 tablespoon of mayonnaise on one side of each toasted bread slice.

  2. 5

    Layer Ingredients

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

  3. 6

    Complete the Sandwich

    Top with the remaining bread slices, mayonnaise side down. Press gently to hold together.
