Comments:
A healthy open faced sandwich. Based on a richer original from the Brown Hotel in Louisville, Kentucky. If you want the rich version, use cream and more bacon.

Sauce:

1-1/2 tbs. butter
2 tbs. all-purpose flour
1/4 tsp. salt
1/8 tsp. paprika
1/8 tsp. freshly ground black pepper
1 cup 2% reduced-fat milk

1/4 cup (1 oz.) grated fresh Parmesan cheese
