Grilled Bacon-Tomato Sandwiches

This is a little twist on a BLT sandwich - and I LOVE it. In fact, it's on the menu for dinner tonight, mmmmm.....


Ingredients:

4 slices Italian bread (1/2 inch thick)
4 slices provolone cheese (1 ounce each)
4 slices tomato
4 bacon strips, cooked and halved (I like to use the lower fat, lower sodium bacon)
2 teaspoons minced fresh basil or 1/2 teaspoon dried basil
2 tablespoons Italian salad dressing



Directions:


Top two slices of bread with a slice of cheese; layer with tomato, bacon, basil and remaining cheese. Top with remaining bread. Brush dressing over outsides of sandwiches.

In a large skillet over medium heat, toast sandwiches for 2-3 minutes on each side or until cheese is melted.


Yield: 2 servings.
