Season the Tomatoes

Assemble
Top with the remaining bread slices, mayo-side down. -
Serve Immediately

Pro Tips (Southern Approved)
-
🍞 Soft white bread only—this is non-negotiable
-
🧂 Salt the tomatoes just before assembling for maximum flavor
-
🌿 Add-ons if you must: a pinch of sugar, fresh basil, or cracked peppercorns
-
🔥 For extra indulgence: lightly toast the bread (but purists may side-eye you 😉)
Simple. Perfect. Timeless.
