Ingredient List:

4 slices of bread, whole wheat or 12 grain

2 Tbsp. light butter

1 large tomato

6 large lettuce leaves

4 slices of bacon

Directions:

Cook the bacon according to the package directions.  Toast the bread and then lightly butter each slice.  Wash and tear the lettuce leaves into generous size leaves.  Wash and slice the tomato into hearty slices.  Once the bacon is done cooking, assemble each sandwich by layering lettuce, tomato and topping with bacon. 

Tip:

Although regular bacon is delicious, it isn’t as healthy as turkey bacon! Substitute turkey bacon to cut back on points, but without completely sacrificing taste and flavor!
