Ingredients

  • 8 slices bread
  • 8 slices bacon
  • 4 large lettuce leaves
  • 1 large tomato, sliced
  • 4 tablespoons mayonnaise
  • Salt, to taste
  • Black pepper, to taste

Instructions

  1. Cook the bacon: Place the bacon in a skillet over medium heat and cook until crispy and golden. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate to remove excess grease.
  2. Prepare the vegetables: Wash the lettuce and tomato. Pat the lettuce dry and slice the tomato into even rounds. Season the tomato lightly with salt and black pepper.
  3. Toast the bread: Lightly toast the 8 bread slices until golden and crisp around the edges.
  4. Add mayonnaise: Spread about ½ tablespoon of mayonnaise on one side of each slice of toasted bread.
  5. Layer the sandwich: Place lettuce on 4 slices of bread, followed by tomato slices and 2 crispy bacon slices per sandwich.
  6. Season: Add a small pinch of black pepper and salt if desired.
  7. Finish: Top each sandwich with another slice of bread and gently press down.
  8. Serve: Cut each sandwich in half and serve immediately while the bacon is still crispy.
