THE BEST TOMATO SANDWICH TO MAKE ALL SUMMER 

This timeless tomato sandwich combines sweet, juicy tomatoes with flavorful herbed cream cheese. Make a larger batch of the cream cheese mixture to keep on hand for spreading on bagels or crackers. For added protein, try layering on smoked salmon, sliced turkey, or chicken.

Ingredients

  • 1 tablespoon low-fat plain Greek yogurt
  • 1 tablespoon fresh chives, sliced
  • 1 tablespoon fresh dill, chopped
  • ¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 2 slices whole-wheat sandwich bread, lightly toasted
  • 4 tomato slices (about ¼-inch thick)

Directions

  • In a small bowl, mix the cream cheese, yogurt, chives, dill, and pepper until well combined.
  • Spread the cream cheese mixture evenly on one side of each toast slice.
  • Layer the tomato slices on one piece of toast and top with the other slice, spread-side down.
  • Cut the sandwich in half diagonally before serving.
