Tomato-Cress sandwich

Not really a recipe, but just an awesome combination!

No, i know. This is not really a recipe, but just a great tip for lunch! (or breakfast, or any given time)
Last weekend my friend and i did a 'kids-swop'. She took the boys, i took the girls. (i don't know why i always get the girls, the boys seem so much more relaxed together. Having the girls means lots of arguing, whatever they do, and it retains a lot of patience) Anyway, it was very nice though, because they baked and cooked and ate throughout the weekend. If you forget the arguing, it was nice to watch!

So yesterday we swopped back. And when i arrived at my friends place to give her back her child and to take home mine, the first thing i saw, were five (yes 5!!) jars of mayonaise. I hear you thinking, what the hack is so special about mayonaise? Well,.. if it's the very best mayonaise you've ever tasted, but CAN'T get anywhere in your country, believe me, it makes you smile from ear to ear. At least, that's what happened to me.
For some reason the French 'Maille' Mayonaise, is not for sale in Holland. You can buy many types of mustard from it, in almost every supermarket, but for sure not the mayonaise.
Always, when we go to France in summer, (and often we go together with these particular friends) the first thing we get is our beloved mayonaise, frenchbread and incredibly sweet tomatoes.

So when you eat this sandwhich, you eat a little bit of sunshine and happiness on your bread. At least, again, i do.

Ingredients (for 2 slices of bread)

2 slices of freshly baked bread
1,5 ripe organic tomatoe
The best mayonaise you can find
A little bit of cress
Pepper & (sea)salt

Preparation


Although you buy orcanically grown tomatoes, you should wash them anyway. Cut them into firm slices and remove the seeds. (you can leave the seeds as well, but your bread gets a bit soppy)
Cover the bread with some mayonaise and lay the tomatoes on top.
Season with salt &pepper en cut off some crest to sprinkle over.

Oh man, that's good!!
