Bacon, Egg, and Tomato Sandwich

Ingredients:

• 4 slices of bacon
• 2 large eggs
• 2 slices of your favorite bread (sourdough, whole wheat, or white)
• 1 ripe tomato, thinly sliced
• 2 lettuce leaves
• 2 tablespoons mayonnaise
• 1 tablespoon butter
• Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions:

1. Cook the Bacon:

   • In a skillet over medium heat, cook the bacon until it becomes crispy and golden brown. This should take about 4-5 minutes per side. Once done, transfer the bacon to a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess grease.

2. Prepare the Eggs:

   • In the same skillet, pour out most of the bacon fat, leaving just a small amount to coat the bottom. Crack the eggs into the skillet and cook them to your preferred doneness (sunny-side up or over-easy). Season the eggs with a pinch of salt and pepper.

3. Toast the Bread:

   • While the eggs are cooking, toast the slices of bread to your liking. You can use a toaster or place them in the oven under the broiler for a couple of minutes until they are lightly toasted.

4. Assemble the Sandwich:

   • Spread a tablespoon of mayonnaise on each slice of bread.

   • Layer the bottom slice of bread with a lettuce leaf, followed by slices of ripe tomato.

   • Place the cooked bacon on top of the tomatoes, creating an even layer.

   • Carefully slide the cooked eggs onto the bacon, and season them with an extra pinch of salt and pepper if desired.

   • Top the eggs with the second slice of bread, mayonnaise-side down, to create the sandwich.

5. Slice and Serve:

   • Use a sharp knife to cut the sandwich in half diagonally, creating two delicious halves.

6. Serve and Enjoy:

   • Serve your bacon, egg, and tomato sandwich immediately while it's still warm. It pairs wonderfully with a side of fresh fruit, hash browns, or a small salad.

This sandwich is a perfect combination of crispy, savory bacon, creamy eggs, and the fresh, juicy taste of tomatoes. It's a classic breakfast or brunch option that's sure to satisfy your taste buds.
