Notes: This over-the-top tomato sandwich is inspired by one from Turkey & The Wolf in New Orleans. For added crunch, roasted sunflower seeds are liberally sprinkled on the sliced bread, creating a nice contrast with the juicy sliced tomatoes. This sandwich is also as much for mayonnaise lovers as it is for tomato purists – don’t be shy when smearing it on! The lemony mayo mixes with the tomato juices to make a vibrant, drippy sauce that is soaked up by the thick slices of toasted sourdough bread. Make this epic sandwich now – it will be sweater weather before you know it.
