Equipment
- Cutting Board
- Knife and bread knife
- Medium or large skillet
- Paper towel
- Tray or baking sheet
- Parchment paper and toothpicks
Ingredients
- ½ loaf baguette bread
- 24 pcs 1-inch pieces of lettuce (about ¼ of a head of lettuce)
- 8 slices bacon
- 12 pcs cherry tomatoes
- ¼ cup mayonnaise (use more or less to taste)
Instructions
- Cut the lettuce into 1-inch pieces and slice the cherry tomatoes in half.
- Slice the baguette into 24 thin slices.
- Cut the bacon into thirds, then cook in a medium or large skillet over medium-low heat until slightly crispy. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate to absorb the grease.

- Arrange the baguette slices on a parchment-lined tray or baking sheet. Top each slice with lettuce, then bacon, then tomato.
- Stick a toothpick through the center of each bite to hold it all together.
Notes
If you’d like a crunchier base, toast the baguette slices at 350°F for 5–7 minutes, or until lightly golden, before adding the toppings.
