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.

I had this salad at a family reunion for the first time this summer. I was skeptical for two reasons- 1) I don’t like raisins and 2) I don’t like anything that resembles miracle whip. Boy, was I wrong! LOVE THIS SALAD! So did the hubby. He said, “This is pretty good for fruity food.” Yep. That’s a compliment.

Broccoli Salad

  • 10 slices bacon
  • 1 head fresh broccoli, cut into bite size pieces
  • 1/4 cup red onion, chopped
  • 1/2 cup raisins
  • 3 tbsp white wine vinegar
  • 2 tbsp white sugar
  • 1 cup mayonnaise
  • 1/2 cup sunflower seeds

Fry the bacon until crispy. Drain on a paper towel, then crumble. Combine the onion, broccoli, and raisins. Pour over broccoli mixture, and toss until well mixed. Refrigerate for at least two hours. Toss the salad with crumbled bacon and sunflower seeds when ready to serve. Serves 6.
