8 slices cooked thick cut bacon
12 slices heirloom tomato
2 cups baby lettuce

lettuce. Season with salt and pepper and top with the remaining slice of bread.

Editor's Note: Look for humane bacon—or go veg and give "mock" bacon a try. (Check out Emeril using soy sausage in this breakfast dish, one his most popular recipes last year.)
