Baked Tomato and Bacon Burger

My new favorite way to make a burger. I made a grain free baked tomato and topped a bacon burger with it . I dipped the large tomato slice in a beaten egg and then covered it in a grain free breading mixture. Then baked on an oiled pan in oven, until browned on each side.  Good served on lettuce wrap or on grain free bread. I included a link to my grain free bread recipe at the bottom of the recipe. The baked tomato is extra yummy on a burger, like a crispy BLT.
