Please Note: While it is our intention to provide a list of box contents each week that accurately reflects actual box contents, due to the unpredictable nature of farming, we are sometimes unable to precisely predict the contents of your share.  Please understand that when these situations arise, we do our very best to supplement shares with the high quality produce, baked goods, and sundries you've come to enjoy.

Bacon, Egg, Tomato, Lettuce, and Mayonnaise Sandwich

This delightfully messy variation on the classic BLT is a perennial favorite at the farm during fresh tomato season. Our favorite ingredients include Grabski's farm-fresh bacon and eggs, organic whole wheat bread, crisp organic lettuce, traditional mayonnaise, and fresh, juicy tomatoes from our farm. Makes two delicious sandwiches.

Ingredients:

6 slices of bacon

2 eggs

4 slices of bread

3-4 leaves of lettuce

2-4 tablespoons of mayonnaise

2 tomatoes, sliced

Preparation:

1. Peel tomatoes and cut into thick slices.

2. Spread a thick layer of mayonnaise on each slice of bread (not toasted!). Start building the sandwiches with a layer of lettuce and a few tomato slices.

3. Fry bacon until crisp. Remove strips from pan and add to sandwiches, two to three slices each.

4. Crack eggs into hot bacon grease. Break yolks and allow eggs to cook until they are firm enough to flip with a spatula. Cook on both sides until firm.

5. Top the sandwiches each with one egg and the last slices of bread. 

These are a little hard to handle (and best eaten over the kitchen sink) but the combination of textures and flavors make it more than worthwhile. Enjoy!
