Notes

Pat the tomato slices dry with a paper towel before layering so they don't make the bread soggy.
Use a sharp serrated knife and a gentle sawing motion to slice the sandwich so you don't squish the fillings out the sides.
Serve: For a lighter solo lunch, feel free to skip the middle slice of bread to enjoy it as a single-layer sandwich if you prefer. Pair with crispy sides, a fresh salad, or soup, and serve with cold, refreshing drinks on warmer days.
