Learn how to make the perfect BLT sandwich with crispy bacon, fresh lettuce, ripe tomatoes, and creamy mayonnaise on toasted bread.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 slices bacon
  • 2 slices white or whole wheat bread
  • 2 tablespoons mayonnaise
  • 2 large lettuce leaves (iceberg or romaine)
  • 2–3 slices ripe tomato
  • Salt and black pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Cook bacon in a skillet over medium heat until crispy. Drain on paper towels.
  2. Toast bread slices until golden brown.
  3. Spread mayonnaise evenly on one side of each toast slice.
  4. Layer lettuce leaves on one slice of toast.
  5. Arrange tomato slices over the lettuce. Season tomatoes with salt and pepper.
  6. Place the crispy bacon slices over the tomatoes.
  7. Top with the other slice of toast, mayonnaise-side down.
  8. Slice the sandwich in half and serve immediately.

Notes

  • For extra flavor, you can lightly salt and pepper your tomato slices before adding them to the sandwich.
  • Ensure your bacon is fully drained to prevent the sandwich from becoming soggy.
  • Patting the bacon dry with a paper towel after cooking can also help remove excess grease.
  • Consider adding a thin layer of mayonnaise to both sides of the bread before toasting for extra richness.
