Ingredients
Instructions
- Spread all slices of bread with butter, then spread the whole wheat slices with Thousand Island dressing.
- Cover one-third of the area of the whole wheat slices with shredded lettuce, reserving a little for later.
- Remove egg yolks from the whites and arrange yolk slices over the center area of the bread, reserving a little.
- Place five slices of tomato over the remaining area on the bread.
- Season with salt and pepper.
- Using a small 3/4-inch plain or fluted rounded cookie cutter, cut out six holes from each slice of white bread.
- Place bread, buttered sides down, over the fillings and press together firmly.
- Cut each sandwich neatly in half to form 'traffic lights'.
- Chop the reserved lettuce and tomato, and slice the egg yolk; use to fill the relevant holes in the sandwich.
- Garnish with a few green onion flowers.
