BLT Extravaganza

The BLT (Bacon, Lettuce and Tomatoe). A classic amongst Sandwich lovers. You bite into delicious soft bread and immerse your tastebuds in the smokey and sultry (yes sultry) flavours of crisp bacon, ripe tomatoes and fresh lettuce. There are many different ways to make a blt. Many use Avocados or add some fancy cheese. The options are endless. I for one have always been a fan of the basics. I do however go a little hard on the bacon because let's be honest, we all need more bacon in our lives.

For one serving of complete oral satisfaction use the following:

1tbsp of light Mayo (Hellmanns is your best choice)
1 small hand full of lettuce. I used Mache or lambs lettuce, but any kind will do.
2-4 slices of a ripe tomatoe
4 slices of bacon
2 slices of whole wheat bread

Toast the Bread. Meanwhile fry up the bacon in a non-stick pan WITHOUT any butter or oil. The bacon is fatty enough that nothing will stick. Once the bacon is crisp place it on a paper towel to drain excess fat. Spread the mayo on both slices of bread and add the lettuce, and tomatoe. Add the Bacon. Season with salt and pepper and place the secons slice of Bread ontop of the other.

Eat and be merry.
