Ode to Tomato Sandwiches

[marmalady]

Let's not forget the humble but magnificent tomato sandwich, while we're getting all our tomato ideas!

The basics- white bread, a juicy ripe tomato, mayo and salt/pepper if you like; slather the mayo on the bread, add tomato slices, then stand over the sink to eat - heaven!

Marmalady,

yes, yes, yes,...Another good one, sun drenched and warm, slice tomato, take a thick slice of fresh french bread, coat with evoo, pile on tomato, drizzle with more evoo, salt and pepper and some fresh basil if you like and a tiny bit of balsamic or red wine vinegar, hang over sink and eat

Mine is lightly toasted rye bread, a smear of mayo, fresh juicy tomatoes and salt and pepper.

Alix,

never thought of rye bread and I love it with ham and swiss, will have to give it a try just the rye, mayo and tomato

Oh, you won't regret it. The tang from the rye bread is the perfect complement to the tomato. MMMmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm!!!

Flour tortilla
an entire tomato, sliced
1/2 avocado sliced
pepper jack, shredded

Roll up, catching the end in the roll, so you can eat it in front of the computer without making a mess.
