Want that bacon-lettuce tomato flavor without the calories of bread? This simple, delicious recipe from “Land O Lakes Taste of Summer" is just right for those first, mouth-watering, vine-ripened tomatoes from your garden. Grill anything to go with it…iced tea and cookies for dessert – the best of summer.
