4 Serving(s)
Ingredients
- 2 large, firm heirloom tomatoes
- 2 tbsp. Schnucks butter, at room temperature
- 8 slices bread
- 1/2 cup Schnucks mayonnaise or other preferred spread
- 1/2 head lettuce, washed and trimmed
- 1 lb. Schnucks bacon slices, cooked
Instructions
- On a cutting board, thickly slice tomatoes with a serrated knife and, if desired, season with salt and pepper.
- In a large, heavy-bottom skillet over medium heat, melt butter. Working in batches as needed, arrange bread in skillet and toast 1 side only until golden brown, 5–8 minutes. Transfer to a cutting board.
- Spread untoasted sides with mayo. Top 4 slices with lettuce, 2–3 slices tomato and 3–4 slices bacon. Top with remaining bread, mayo sides down. Cut sandwiches in half and serve immediately.
Chef Tip: For maximum crisp, add bacon to a cold nonstick skillet before turning on your burner. Cook it on medium-high for 9–12 minutes, flipping occasionally.
