Tomato season is one of my favorite parts of the summer. I love them all. Big, little, yellow, red. There really isn’t a home grown tomato I don’t like. I eat them nearly every day they are available. Most often I eat them in BLTs and Bologna Tomato Sandwiches. They add something so special to a sandwich… well, really anything you add them to. In fact, I don’t eat bologna unless it’s in the sandwich below. And I always cut my sandwiches into triangles. For some reason, I am convinced they taste better that way. 😀 What is your favorite summer sandwich?
The BLT
- 4 slices of bacon, fried crispy
- 1 big slice of tomato
- 1 lettuce leaf
- Mayo
- Salt and pepper
- 2 slices of toast
Spread the mayo on one side of the bread. Top with the lettuce, tomato, salt and pepper, then bacon. Add top slice of bread. Cut into triangles. MMM!
The Bologna Tomato Sandwich
- 1 slice good bologna (I used Boar’s Head Beef Bologna)
- 1 big slice of tomato
- Mayo
- Salt and pepper
- 2 slices of toast
Spread the mayo on one side of bread. Top with the bologna, tomato, salt and pepper. Add top slice of bread. Cut into triangles.

That looks gorgeous!! Love a good BLT and especially love summer tomatoes! As for bologna…I had a wicked crazing for this last week and consumed an entire package. Never thought to put a tomato on it so now I have an excuse to go out and get some more 🙂
Hard to choose just one favorite summer sandwich, but the BLT would definitely be near the top of my list! I also like banh mi sandwiches and almost any sandwich with avocado!
Bologna. No matter what fancy stuff I eat, I still hold bologna in high esteem.
It’s true. Cutting a sandwich on the diagonal makes it taste better. I really appreciate the fact that you featured bologna in such an outstanding venue. Bless you!
No nearly as classless as velveeta users…. or maybe I am deluding myself?
No! Bologna is the real deal!
