Easy Weeknight Dinner—Toasted Sourdough and Tomato Sandwich With Bacon Basil Mayo

September 1, 2020 by Tonja Leave a Comment

My all time favorite summer sandwich is a BLT.  My Mom and I used to start eating them at the end of July when tomatoes began to ripen.   We would eat standing up, barely leaving the toaster, to devour our favorite summer treat.  We ate these on heavy rotation until the end of August.

Well, it’s that time of year again, so I picked up my tomatoes at the farmer’s stand and went to work. I’ve changed things up and instead of iceberg and slabs of bacon, I’ve created this divine sauce with bacon and basil.

Try this new take on the original BLT and make your August dinner an easy one.
