Marinated the celery in the dressing. Prepare the bacon, lettuce and tomatoes. Just prior to enjoying, toss the apricots with the celery and assemble the sandwich.
The crunch of the celery against the creamy sweetness of the apricots is delightful. Try this salad when you are ready to branch out of the ordinary green salad and you have a few apricots needing attention. Other stone fruits, such as peaches may work as well, but I have yet to try it.
With only 5 ingredients, this sandwich highlights each flavor and skimping on one is not worth it. Start with your favorite bread (gluten-free is fine, too), only the ripest, freshest tomatoes, and thick bacon you know you will love. Even the mayo will show up in your mouth, but its main roll is to keep the bread from getting soggy as the thin layer of fat creates a barrier against the drippy sweetness of the juiciest tomato slices you can find.
