Lay the bread on top of each other in a way that they are partially covered. This will make it easier to open the bread to add the remaining ingredients. Cook for 3 minutes. Open the sandwich and place bacon, tomato, and lettuce in the sandwich. Flip the sandwich and cook for 2 minutes or until the bread is toasty.
