Bacon, cucumber, tomato sandwiches. Serious questions were asked to decide if we could really afford bacon.

Cost per person, $4

Legit sandwich, cucumber kinda levels it up over lettuce IMO

I hope you enjoyed it!

    We have given up on lettuce on most sandwiches. Cucumber is the superior flavor crunch.

    Containers, soil, and seeds. Be your own oasis. 💚

    I planted 200 different seeds from a dozen different plants this year. Arugula wasn't even in the running. Not enough calories, long term storage options, no free seeds from the library, and anything close to lettuce has a bad habit of bolting way too early here. Mustards and collards do much better here. In fact I have a volunteer mustard this year.

    That like an everything bagel style bread crust? looks good, as much as I like bacon, it would be very good without, too.

    Some kind of seeded sandwich bread at Aldi's. $3.99 a loaf. I've got half of it left and will probably do chicken salad on it in a day or two. I think it will be even better than the bacon option.

    I'll have to try cucumbers instead of lettuce. Sounds tasty.

    Looks like a fantastic sandwich, cucumber is the devil's scum-sausage though, and that sandwich is rolling an awful lot of it. 1 star.
