Inspired by a favorite cooking show of mine on Fude Netwerk, I decided today to make a tomato sandwich that is packed with multiple flavour dimensions and like the title suggests, bitchin.
I started by cutting thin slices of side bacon (from a whole unsliced side) and frying in a pan over medium - high heat. While cooking the bacon, I sliced up some fresh firm yet ripe tomatoes from my garden.
I used whole wheat bread as I've finally grown to have a taste for it.... and put in in the toaster. Once the bread is toasted, butter it up good with either margarine (w00t) or butter. Place the tomato slices on the bread as thick as you want to go. Salt and pepper (fresh cracked pepper) to taste.
Once your bacon is to your liking (I like soft, Amy likes crispy) place the bacon strips along the sandwich.
I know what you're thinking, this is a tomato sandwich with bacon... well the final touch is to slap a dollop of sour cream on top of the tomatoes and bacon. BANG!
I guarantee that this will blow your mind. Add some fresh chopped chives if you dare!
Eat up.
I just made some cucumber/bacon/tomato/lettuce/avocado sandwhiches with a tomato from my garden. The only difference (other than the veggies) is that I used Fat Free Miracle Whip to bring down the calorie count. I used cracked pepper and kosher salt on the tomatoes. Sooooo good!
