Not Your Ordinary Blt Sandwich Recipes

NOT YOUR ORDINARY BLT SANDWICH

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400°F.
• Use tomatoes held at room temp till fully ripe. Quarter tomatoes & remove the seedy moist centers so only the "meat" of the tomato is used. Coarsely chop tomato meat, place in a lrg bowl & set aside.
• Slice off the top of each hard roll & remove the center for a later use. Brush inside of rolls (& their tops) w/2 tbsp of the creamy dressing. Bake till lightly toasted (about 5 min) & set aside.
• Add the lettuce, bacon, green onions, feta cheese & remaining Caesar dressing to the bowl w/the tomatoes & toss till well-mixed.
• Spoon BLT mix into toasted bread shells. Place tops of rolls over the filling & serve immediately.
• NOTES: If you want to do the prep ahead, but serve later -- delay the final step till just prior to serving. Sliced avocado also makes a nice "extra" w/this sandwich.

NOT YOUR AVERAGE BLT

Steps:

• Cook bacon, saving the drippings. Remove to paper towels to drain.
• Fry eggs in bacon drippings.
• Arrange all ingredients on toasted bread, dividing evenly to make two sandwiches.

CLASSIC BLT SANDWICH

Steps:

• Cook bacon until crispy, then drain on paper towels.
• Toast the 8 slices of bread.
• Spread 1 tablespoon mayo on each slice of toasted bread. (More or less, to taste).
• Add 1 slice of lettuce to 4 pieces of mayo-spreaded toast.
• Add 2 slices of tomato on top of lettuce.
• Arrange 3 slices of bacon evenly on top of tomato. (Break bacon slices in half to fit, if needed.).
• Add 1 slice of lettuce on top of bacon.
• Put the remaining 4 pieces of mayo-spreaded toast on top to finish the sandwiches.
• Enjoy!
• NOTE: I also like to butter the toast slices before adding the mayo -- higher in fat, but tastier, in my opinion!
