Preheat a non-stick skillet over medium heat.
Cook the low sodium bacon slices in the skillet for about 7-8 minutes or until crispy, flipping halfway through. Once done, set aside on a paper towel-lined plate to drain any excess fat.
While the bacon is cooking, slice the whole wheat bap rolls in half and lightly toast them in a toaster or under a broiler.
Spread unsalted butter evenly across the cut sides of each bap roll.
Place one fresh lettuce leaf on the bottom half of each buttered bap roll.
Lay the tomato slices over the lettuce and sprinkle with ground black pepper.
Add two crispy low sodium bacon slices on top of the tomato slices in each bap.
Finish with a generous dollop of low sodium ketchup on top of the bacon.
Top with the other half of the bap rolls to form a sandwich.
Serve immediately and enjoy your low sodium classic bacon bap!
