Ingredients
  

  • 2 slices bread
  • Mayonnaise
  • 2-4 thick slices ripe tomato enough to cover the bread
  • Salt to taste
  • black pepper to taste
  • Italian seasoning to taste

Method
 

  1. Toast the bread until golden and crisp, especially around the edges. Cool slightly.
  2. Spread each slice generously with mayonnaise.
  3. Top with thick slices of ripe tomato, using enough to cover the toast.
  4. Season generously with salt, freshly ground black pepper, and Italian seasoning.
  5. Serve immediately while the toast is still crisp.

Notes

The measurements here are intentionally loose. The size of your bread and tomatoes will determine how much you need. For the best tomato toast, use tomatoes that are fully ripe and at room temperature.
