SUPER TOMATO SANDWICHES



Super Tomato Sandwiches image

I never could resist a tomato sandwich. It is the combination of mayonnaise, tomatoes and bread that is so compelling. I call these MLTs: mayonnaise, lettuce and tomatoes. I make a spicy mayo with chipotle adobo (my son's favorite), and an herbal mayo with tarragon (my favorite). Play around with aioli and other flavored mayonnaises. Use whole grain bread and toast it lightly so that it doesn't get soggy. The tomatoes should overlap in a thick layer.

Time 5m

Yield 1 sandwich

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 tablespoon adobe or tarragon mayonnaise (see tip)
2 slices whole wheat or mixed grains sandwich bread, lightly toasted
1 large or 2 medium tomatoes, sliced
Salt and pepper, if desired (don't salt if you are not eating right away because the tomatoes will release too much juice)
1/4 medium avocado, thinly sliced
Lettuce, arugula or spring greens
Fresh basil leaves, if desired

Steps:

  • Spread mayonnaise on both slices of the lightly toasted bread. Arrange tomato slices in a thick overlapping layer on top of the bottom slice. Sprinkle with salt, pepper and basil if desired (do not salt if not eating right away).
  • Place a layer of thin avocado slices on top of the tomatoes and top with lettuce leaves and the top slice of bread. Press down firmly and cut the sandwich in half. You can wrap and transport the sandwich, as the toasted bread will resist becoming soggy for a few hours.

SUPER SANDWICH

This big, meaty, super sandwich is one I've made many times when I knew I'd be feeding a hungry bunch. Everyone remarks on the tasty olive salad tucked between slices of meat and cheese. Since it can be made ahead, you're free to visit with family and friends. -Patrice Barker, Tampa, Florida

SIMPLE TOMATO SANDWICH



Simple Tomato Sandwich image

I am only posting such a simple recipe because I actually somehow lived 29 years of life before my husband introduced me to the Tomato Sandwich. If you've only used tomatoes as an accessory in your sandwiches, and not as the Featured Ingredient, you are truly missing summer as it was meant to be tasted. Note: after many years, I have solidly converted to mayo for this sandwich, with fresh ground black pepper too. (Oct 2012)

Categories     Lunch/Snacks

Time 5m

Yield 1 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 4

2 slices bread (homemade strongly recommended, cracked wheat is my specific favorite)
1 medium organic tomatoes (room temperature or fresh from the stalk, do NOT attempt this with pale, store-bought types!) or 1 medium garden tomatoes (room temperature or fresh from the stalk, do NOT attempt this with pale, store-bought types!)
3 tablespoons Miracle Whip or 3 tablespoons mayonnaise
salt, to taste

Steps:

  • Toast bread.
  • Slice tomato.
  • When bread is adequately toasted, liberally spread both sides with Miracle Whip (or butter one side with Miracle Whip on the other).
  • Lay tomato slices on one side of bread.
  • Salt tomato to taste.
  • Slap that baby together and savor summer at its best!

TOMATO SANDWICHES



Tomato Sandwiches image

You may not really need a recipe for a tomato sandwich, but sometimes varying it can be nice, especially if you tend to get stuck in a habit as the summer progresses. This version, based on pan con tomate, involves rubbing the guts of a ripe tomato all over garlicky toasted bread. More tomato slices are added on top, along with slivers of onion and mayonnaise, and bacon if you'd like. It's a supremely messy sandwich best munched over the sink, or with plenty of napkins nearby.

Categories     brunch, easy, lunch, quick, sandwiches, main course

Time 10m

Yield 2 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

4 slices crusty country bread
1 fat garlic clove, halved crosswise
1 ripe and soft tomato, halved
Extra-virgin olive oil, for drizzling
Flaky sea salt
Mayonnaise, as needed
1 ripe but firm tomato, sliced
Thinly sliced white onion
4 slices cooked bacon (optional)

Steps:

  • Toast the bread. Take each slice and rub one side all over with the cut side of the garlic clove. (The clove should start to disintegrate into the bread.) Rub each slice with the cut sides of the soft halved tomato, pressing so the tomato flesh sticks to the bread. Drizzle bread with oil, then sprinkle with salt.
  • Spread mayonnaise over the tomato pulp. Place the sliced tomatoes on top of 2 pieces of the bread. Cover tomato slices with onions and sprinkle with salt. Top with bacon if using, then use the other 2 slices of tomato-rubbed bread to make sandwiches. Eat over the sink.

SOUTHERN TOMATO SANDWICH



Southern Tomato Sandwich image

Tastes like summer! Room temperature tomatoes are key here and once the salt and pepper hit them, the juices start flowing. When the juicy tomatoes blend in with the mayonnaise, it makes a delicious, creamy, slightly tangy, and flavorful sauce. The bread becomes slightly soggy, in the best way possible. The last bite is even better than the first!
