🍅 Why You’ll Love This Sandwich
I’ve shared plenty of quick sandwich ideas before, and this one stands out for its simplicity and flavor.
- No bread needed – tomato slices act as the “bun.”
- High-protein & low-carb – ideal for WW, low-carb, or lighter meals.
- Bright flavor – creamy cottage cheese paired with zippy Dijon mustard.
- Perfect summer snack – juicy, refreshing, and requires no cooking.
It delivers deli-style satisfaction without the heaviness. No wonder Bethenny calls it a go-to snack.
🛒 Ingredients Needed for the Tomato Sandwich
- 1 large tomato — sliced into thick “bread” rounds.
- ¼ cup low-fat or regular cottage cheese.
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard.
- Salt & pepper to taste.
- Optional add-ins: sliced turkey, sprouts, fresh basil, or red onion.
✅ Substitution Tips
- Use vegan cottage cheese or whipped tofu for a dairy-free option.
- Swap Dijon for spicy brown or honey mustard if you prefer.
- Add avocado or turkey for extra fullness.
- Choose heirloom tomatoes for larger slices and more intense flavor.
🥪 How to Make Bethenny Frankel’s Tomato Sandwich
Step 1: Slice your tomato into thick ½-inch rounds. Pat dry with paper towels to reduce slipping and sogginess.
Step 2: In a small bowl, mix cottage cheese and Dijon mustard until smooth and creamy.
Step 3: Spread the mixture onto one tomato slice and season with salt and pepper.
Step 4: Add any optional toppings, then place the second tomato slice on top. Serve immediately — it’s delightfully juicy.
🧠 Pro Tip: This isn’t great for driving — it’s deliciously messy, so have a napkin ready.
