I'm extra excited to share this today because I officially live within driving distance to Daytona International Speedway! I see some visits in my near future. But, we don't have to plan a visit to get into the racing spirit!
I recently found found a simple recipe for Racer's Tomato and Mayo Sandwiches. I've heard of having a tomato and mayo sandwich, but I have to admit that I'd never tried one.
The addition of lemon juice, grated lemon peel, salt and pepper to Hellmann's mayonnaise make a tangy and delicious addition to these simple sandwiches.

I'm totally making this for lunch tomorrow! Great recipe!
This would be a perfect sandwich for my mom. She loves tomatoes and mayo.
I love how simple this sandwich is! It will be a great one to make this spring and summer when you want something cold for lunch.
Two of my friends are huge race fans. I am going to send them this post! They would love to win this!
MMMMMM you had me at tomato and Mayo, what a delectable combo. I get me tomatoes from my Kroger too.
There are no race fans in my house, but I’m sure my husband would love that sandwich! So simple to make and looks delicious!
A tomato sandwich sounds delicious! This is the kind of thing I like having for an early lunch!
I love that you used french bread. And all that pepper. This sounds so yummy!
There is nothing like a nice, ripe tomato. And mayonnaise tastes so good with it on a sandwich.
I have been eating this sandwich for years! It is one of my favorites in the Summer! Yummy!
I have never had these. I do love tomatoes so I may have to try this soon!
Tomato sandwiches are wonderful. They're not too heavy, and they taste great!
I love, love, love tomato sandwiches and totally feel that it is all in the right mayo spread. I can't wait to get some fresh tomatoes from the garden and get started 🙂 YUMMY. Thanks for the sweeps, too
Yep, yep, yep. We make these all the time. Even my daughter loves them. There's just something about the taste of tomato and may that you really can't beat.
