BLT Sandwiches

January 15, 2010 – 9:58 am

Hardly worth a post, as these aren’t even really a recipe, but they’re one of my favorite sandwiches, nonetheless. The bulk of the lettuce and tomatoes let me enjoy bacon while practicing some form of moderation 🙂 I had these for breakfast today, enjoying one of my every other Fridays off with a lazy morning. Obviously these can be scaled up to serve more. I prefer to cook my bacon in the oven on a cooling rack nested in a rimmed baking sheet. The fat all easily drains away and it cooks with no messy spattering or trouble at all.

BLT Sandwiches
Serves 1

Bread of your choice (I used two mini sandwich thins here – high fiber, 100% whole wheat, and quite tasty), lightly toasted
4 slices of bacon, cooked until crisp, patted dry
2 leaves romaine lettuce, chopped
1 medium tomato, sliced
1 tbsp mayonaise
Freshly ground black pepper

Spread the mayo onto the bread and grind pepper on top to taste. Place the bacon on the bread, stack lettuce and tomato on top, and close up the sandwich. If desired, cut sandwich for easier eating. Devour with pleasure.
