Unbelievable Tomato Sandwiches Recipes

SUPER TOMATO SANDWICHES

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.

TOMATO SANDWICHES

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.

MAMA'S BEST BROILED TOMATO SANDWICH

Steps:

• Preheat oven to broil.
• In a shallow bowl, whisk together the olive oil and vinegar. Marinate the tomatoes in the mixture, stirring occasionally.
• Meanwhile, in a small bowl, combine mayonnaise, parsley, oregano, black pepper and 4 teaspoons Parmesan cheese. Spread mixture on each slice of toasted bread. Place marinated tomatoes on 2 slices and sprinkle with remaining Parmesan cheese.
• Place on a baking sheet and broil for 5 minutes, or until cheese turns golden brown. Serve immediately, open faced or closed.

UNBELIEVABLE TOMATO SANDWICHES

Steps:

• Peel tomatoes by dropping them into boiling water for a few seconds then slice into rather thick slices. Put tomatoes on a paper towel and shake seasoning on both sides and let them sit and "sweat" while you prepare the bread and mayonnaise.
• Cut bread into rounds (I use a small coffee cup) and save the crusts for bread pudding!
• Mix mayonnaise with grated onion and accent. Spread mayo mix onto each round of bread and slap a thick slice of tomato with Cajun seasoning on it and enjoy.
• I usually make a nice summer soup to go along with these.

BALSAMIC-MARINATED TOMATO SANDWICHES

Steps:

• In small bowl, whisk together oil, balsamic vinegar, red wine vinegar, tarragon, 1/4 teaspoon salt, 1/4 teaspoon pepper, and garlic.
• Place half the tomato slices and half of the onion slices in a shallow baking dish; drizzle with half of the olive oil mixture. Add remaining tomato and onion slices; drizzle with remaining olive oil. Let stand at least 2 hours, spooning juices over tomato and onion 4 or 5 times.
• To assemble sandwiches: Split bread loaves and place, cut side up, on a platter; brush cut sides with marinade. Divide tomato and onion mixture among loaves. Top with lettuce and avocado; sprinkle with remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper.
