Ingredients
  

  • 8 slices of bread white or whole wheat
  • 8 slices of bacon
  • 1 large tomato sliced
  • 4 ounces of cheddar cheese shredded
  • 4 ounces of mozzarella cheese shredded
  • 4 tablespoons of mayonnaise
  • 1 tablespoon of butter
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Fresh lettuce leaves

Method
 

  1. In a skillet over medium heat, cook the bacon until crispy. Remove and drain on paper towels. Reserve a tablespoon of bacon grease in the skillet.
  2. Spread 1 tablespoon of mayonnaise on one side of each slice of bread.
