Try this vegetarian riff on a BLT sandwich! Instead of bacon, this recipe uses pan-fried halloumi cheese, which is similarly chewy, salty, golden and tasty. Recipe yields 2 large or 3 medium sandwiches, depending on the size of your bread.
Ingredient:
4 large or 6 medium slices of sourdough bread
2 medium-to-large ripe red tomatoes
Flaky sea salt or kosher salt
6 ounces halloumi cheese
¼ cup extra-virgin olive oil, for frying
Freshly ground black pepper
6 tablespoons mayonnaise, or as needed
6 tender green lettuce leaves (I like butter lettuce)
