Begin by washing and drying the lettuce leaves. Set them aside for later use.
Slice the tomato evenly into thin slices, about 1/4-inch thick. Sprinkle a pinch of salt and black pepper over the slices for added flavor.
Cook the bacon slices in a frying pan over medium heat until crispy, about 5-7 minutes. Once cooked, transfer the bacon to a plate lined with paper towels to drain any excess grease.
While the bacon is cooking, lightly toast the gluten-free bread slices using a toaster or in the oven until they are golden brown.
Spread 1 tablespoon of mayonnaise on one side of each toasted bread slice.
Layer the sandwich by placing the lettuce leaves on top of one slice of the mayonnaise-coated bread, followed by the sliced tomato, and finally the crispy bacon.
Place the second slice of bread on top, mayonnaise side down, pressing gently to ensure the sandwich holds together.
Cut the sandwich in half, if desired, and serve immediately for best taste.
