EXPERT TIPS

Expert Tips

You can use almost any bread you have on hand for this sandwich. We've called for sourdough or Vienna because these are firm textured and grill well. Other good choices include Italian bread, large French bread slices or country French bread slices.

These sandwiches are great for lunch or supper. For lunch, serve them with cut-up fresh vegetables and fruit. For supper, add deli potato salad and pickles.

This was good but I would do things different next time. My sandwich did not come out thick looking like this picture. Next time I would either crumble the bacon or use bacon bits. I would chop the onion instead of using slices. I would not use the contact grill, I think I would brown in a fry pan next time so the sandwich didn't get so flat.
