Don't fix it if it isn't broke! With the fresh taste of tomato, the salty crunch of bacon mingled with lettuce, this sandwich makes the perfect picnic meal. Tried and true for decades. You can't go wrong with this one.

serves/makes:

ready in:
under 30 minutes

ingredients

1 pound bacon, fried and drained
3 large fresh tomatoes, washed and sliced
12 lettuce leaves, washed
6 tablespoons mayonnaise
12 slices bread, toasted if desired

directions

Fry bacon according to package directions, then drain on paper towels. Prep vegetables and toast bread if desired.

Assemble sandwiches: Spread mayo on bread and top with slices of bacon, tomato and lettuce.

For those who prefer less bread, try serving it open-face with a lettuce leaf on top. Otherwise, top with second piece of bread and slice in half.
