Tomato Sandwich Ingredients
- 2 heirloom or beefsteak tomatoes
- 4 slices bread, toasted
- 3 tablespoons mayonnaise
- Pinch of salt and pepper
- Optional – 1/4 cup microgreens or sprouts
Instructions
- Slice the Tomatoes: Carefully slice the tomatoes into 1/2 inch thick slices using a sharp knife to ensure even pieces for the sandwich.
- Spread Mayonnaise: Evenly coat each slice of toasted bread with mayonnaise to add creaminess and balance the acidity of the tomatoes.
- Assemble Tomatoes on Bread: Place the tomato slices in a single layer on two of the bread slices, then sprinkle with salt and pepper to enhance the flavor.
- Add Microgreens and Serve: Optionally add microgreens or sprouts on top of the tomatoes for extra freshness and texture. Place the remaining bread slices on top, halve the sandwiches, and serve immediately.
Notes
- Use ripe, fresh tomatoes for the best flavor.
- To make it vegan, substitute mayonnaise with a plant-based alternative.
- Serve immediately to prevent the bread from becoming soggy.
- Microgreens add nutrition and freshness but can be omitted if unavailable.
- Can be customized with additional ingredients like avocado or cheese if desired.
