MY FAVORITE OPEN-FACED TOMATO SANDWICH

Steps:

• Spread butter, margarine, or Pam on both sides of each piece of bread.
• Grill on a cast iron skillet, non-stick pan, or whatever it takes to get them toasted. (You can toast them in a toaster and then butter them, but I've found that makes them a little soggy.).
• In the meantime, slice each tomato into 8 slices.
• When the bread is toasted on both sides, spread Boursin or goat cheese on one side of the bread.
• Top each bread slice with four tomatoes.
• Sprinkle each sandwich with kosher salt to taste.
