🥪 How to Make a Tomato Sandwich
1. Prepare the Bread
Place the two slices of bread on a clean surface.
Spread mayonnaise or butter evenly over one side of each slice.
2. Add the Tomato
Arrange the tomato slices over one slice of bread.
Try to spread them evenly so every bite has plenty of fresh tomato.
3. Season
Sprinkle the tomatoes with a little salt and freshly ground black pepper.
If you like, add a small drizzle of olive oil for extra flavor.
4. Assemble
Place the second slice of bread on top and press the sandwich gently.
Cut it in half and serve immediately.
