Submitted by mamacancook

"The best time for these are when tomatoes are in season-especially if they're home grown,and the type of bread you use makes all the differnce-If you can get a good heavy German style bread this makes the best sandwhich (no need to toast) but for this posting we'll go with Twelve grain bread."

my aunt and uncle had a ten acre farm of mostly tomatoes. it does'nt get better than this. there is something special about a home grown, acidicly perfect, juicy tomato. my aunt always used mayo, but this is just as great. yum

This has so much flavour for so little effort. I toasted some white bread and used sweet, vine-ripened tomatoes which complemented the garlic powder beautifully.

This was so simple to make and so healthy to eat! The garlic powder gives a "zing" to this witch makes it good so I wouldn't leave it out!
