Bacon and Tomato Sandwiches

Unusual-but unusually good. Don't pass on this one!

2/3 cup Carnation Nonfat Dry Milk Powder
3 tablespoons all purpose flour
1 1/2 cups water
2 teaspoons prepared mustard
2 teaspoons dried parsley flakes
1 1/2 cups (6 ounces) shredded Kraft reduced fat Cheddar cheese
4 slices reduced calories white bread, toasted
1 cup thinly sliced tomato
1/4 cup Hormel Bacon Bits

In a covered jar, combine dry milk powder, flour and water. Share well to blend. Pour milk mixture into a large skillet sprayed with butter flavored cooking spray. Add mustard, parsley flakes and Cheddar cheese. Mix well to combine. Cook over medium heat until mixture thickens and cheese melts, stirring often. For each sandwich, place 1 slice of toast on a plate, arrange 1/4 cup sliced tomato over toast, spoon about 1/3 cup cheese sauce over tomato, and sprinkle 1 tablespoon bacon bits over top.
