Ingredients:

For the sandwich:

- 8 slices bacon, applewood or hickory smoked
- 1 large tomato, sliced thin (about 8 slices)
- 1 tray of HAMAMA salad microgreens, harvested
- 12 slices Martin’s Potato Bread or other sandwich bread, lightly toasted

For the chicken salad:

- 2 rotisserie chicken breasts, meat pulled and shredded
- ¼ cup + 2 tbsp. mayonnaise
- ¼ cup Greek yogurt

- 1 tbsp. lemon juice, fresh squeezed

Preparation:

In a medium skillet, cook bacon until crispy and transfer to paper towels (to blot out the excess fat). Reserve the leftover fat in the fridge for future use.

In a small bowl, combine ingredients for the chicken salad, and mix well until thoroughly combined. Lightly toast bread, slice tomatoes and harvest greens to make the sandwiches.
