Ingredients
Sandwich Ingredients
- 3 tablespoons homemade labneh (or store-bought classic labneh)
- Extra virgin olive oil, for drizzling
- 2 slices sandwich bread, lightly toasted
- 1/2 large heirloom tomato, thinly sliced into rounds
- Kosher salt, to taste
- Black pepper, to taste
Instructions
- Whip and soften the labneh: In a small bowl, stir the labneh with a generous drizzle of extra virgin olive oil until it becomes glossy and spreadable. Add more olive oil as needed to achieve the right consistency.
- Build the sandwich: Spread a thick layer of the prepared labneh evenly over each slice of toasted bread. Arrange the thinly sliced heirloom tomato rounds on top, then season with kosher salt and black pepper to taste.
- Serve: Cut the sandwich in half crosswise for easy eating and enjoy immediately to savor the fresh and creamy flavors.
Notes
- Use ripe, flavorful heirloom tomatoes for the best taste and texture.
- You can substitute labneh with thick Greek yogurt if labneh is unavailable.
- Lightly toasting the bread adds texture and helps prevent sogginess.
- Adjust the amount of olive oil for desired creaminess and flavor intensity.
- Add fresh herbs like basil or mint for extra freshness, if desired.
