Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 8 slices low sodium bacon
- 4 pieces whole wheat sandwich rolls
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 0.5 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
- 4 tablespoons sugar-free ketchup
- 4 leaves Bib Lettuce
- 1 medium ripe tomato
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Lay the low sodium bacon slices in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Bake in the oven for 12-15 minutes or until crispy. Remove from the oven and drain on paper towels to remove excess grease.
While the bacon is cooking, split the whole wheat sandwich rolls in half and spread a thin layer of unsalted butter on each cut side.
Toast the buttered rolls on a skillet over medium heat until golden brown. This should take about 2-3 minutes per side.
Wash and dry the Bib lettuce leaves. Slice the tomato into thin rounds.
To assemble, place a lettuce leaf on each bottom half of the toasted roll. Add two slices of crispy bacon on top.
Season the tomato slices with freshly ground black pepper and place a slice on top of the bacon.
Drizzle a tablespoon of sugar-free ketchup over the tomato slice and top with the other half of the roll.
Serve immediately for a fresh and satisfying low sodium bacon roll experience.
