Preheat a non-stick skillet over medium heat.

While the bacon is cooking, toast the slices of whole grain bread to your desired level of crunchiness using a toaster.
Spread the low-fat mayonnaise evenly on one side of each toasted bread slice.
Place the lettuce leaves on the mayonnaise-covered side of one bread slice.
Layer the cooked turkey bacon slices on top of the lettuce, followed by the tomato slices.
Sprinkle the Italian seasoning and black pepper over the tomato slices for added flavor.
Close the sandwich with the other slice of bread, mayo side down.
Press the sandwich gently, then cut it in half for serving.
Enjoy your low-fat classic bacon sandwich immediately for the best experience.
