Tomato Sandwich
My favorite summer sandwich is a simple tomato sandwich. A little fresh butter spread on my favorite rye bread then nothing beats a fresh ripe tomato sliced onto fresh bread. Season to your taste with simple salt and pepper. The bonus is this sandwich takes just a minute to make!

Notes
This is my favorite sandwich. But, in the South the preferred bread is sliced fresh white bread. Also mayo is used instead of butter. Use your preferred bread and mayo as long as you have fresh ripe tomatoes.
I also used to love onion salt on my sandwich! But that one is just me.
