Instructions
Prepare bread: Lightly toast bread slices if desired, or leave soft and fresh for the classic style.
Spread: Generously spread mayonnaise on one or both slices of bread.
Layer tomatoes: Place tomato slices on one piece of bread. Sprinkle with salt and black pepper to enhance the flavor.
Assemble: Top with the second slice of bread, press gently, and cut in half if preferred.
Serve: Enjoy immediately — the juiciness of the tomatoes makes this best eaten fresh.
Variations:
Add fresh basil and mozzarella for a Caprese-style sandwich.
Swap mayo for cream cheese with chives for a tangy twist.
Add crispy bacon for a BLT-inspired version.
