1
Cook the Bacon
In a skillet over medium heat, cook the bacon slices until they are crispy, about 7-10 minutes. Flip occasionally to ensure even cooking. Once done, transfer the bacon to a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess grease.
2
Prepare the Vegetables
While the bacon is cooking, wash the lettuce leaves thoroughly and pat them dry with a paper towel. Slice the tomato into thick slices.

3
Toast the Bread
Lightly toast the slices of bread until golden brown. This can be done in a toaster or on a skillet.
4
Spread Mayonnaise
Spread 1 tablespoon of mayonnaise on one side of each slice of toasted bread.
5
Layer the Ingredients
On two of the slices of bread (mayonnaise side up), layer the lettuce leaves, followed by the crispy bacon, and then the tomato slices. Season the tomato with salt and black pepper to taste.
6
Finish the Sandwich
Top with the remaining slices of bread, mayonnaise side down. Press gently to secure the layers.

7
Slice and Serve
Cut the sandwich diagonally and serve immediately with your choice of side.
