Can you tell that I haven't had breakfast yet? My mind is on food....any kind of food, but a sandwich in particular. I saw this picture while looking for something on the internet and it set my stomach juices rumbling. I think this may be my favorite sandwich. Nice smoky bacon, juicy slice of a beefsteak tomato (one slice fills the sandwich) and crisp iceberg lettuce.....all smeared with Hellman's mayo and served between two slices of a good crusty bread toasted. Oh, there goes my tummy again. Once in a while I have a sandwich for breakfast. It has all the ingredients for a balanced breakfast...I think. I have another version of this that I make once in a while. You take bread and toast it about half way. Fry some bacon until a little crispy and then put together this open faced sandwich. First lightly toasted bread, then a slice of American cheese, then tomato, then bacon and topped with a half slice of cheese. I put these on a cookie sheet and run them under the broiler until the cheese melts. My Mom used to pour the bacon grease on top of the sandwich, but I don't. This is a BCT sandwich. Now, I want to know what kind of bacon do you use? We have tried turkey bacon and really like the Oscar Mayer brand. It doesn't compare to the real thing, but it will do most of the time, but when we want a BLT or a BCT we want the real thing. Joe prefers thick sliced and I prefer thin. Does that make us Jack Spratt and his wife? Please comment on what your favorite sandwich is...I have to go now and make breakfast...I wonder what I'll have? Balisha :)
