Tomato & Provolone Sandwiches

Tomato & Provolone Sandwiches

INGREDIENTS:

• 1 small clove garlic, finely chopped
• 1/4 cup low-fat mayonnaise
• 2 tablespoons chopped fresh tarragon or basil or 1 teaspoon dried
• 1 tablespoon lemon juice
• 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground pepper
• Pinch of salt
• 8 slices whole-grain country bread
• 4 slices provolone cheese (about 4 ounces)
• 2 large or 3 medium tomatoes (about 1 1/2 pounds), sliced 1/2 inch thick

 DIRECTIONS:

1. Position rack in upper third of oven; preheat broiler.
2. Mash garlic on a cutting board with the side of a chef’s knife or a spoon until a paste forms. Transfer to a small bowl and combine with mayonnaise, tarragon (or basil), lemon juice, pepper and salt.
3. Place bread on a large baking sheet and broil until lightly toasted, 1 to 2 minutes. Turn the bread over and divide cheese among 4 of the pieces. Continue broiling until the cheese is melted, 1 to 2 minutes.
4. Assemble sandwiches with tomato and the garlic-herb mayonnaise. Top with the melted cheese bread.
