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 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.
