Blt sandwich with lettuce and tomato

A BLT sandwich is a classic and timeless option for a quick and delicious meal. Comprised of crispy bacon, fresh lettuce, and ripe tomato, all nestled between slices of whole-wheat bread with a touch of creamy mayonnaise, this sandwich brings together simple ingredients to create a savory and satisfying experience. Whether you're making it for breakfast, lunch, or a light dinner, the BLT is sure to please.

Ingredients:

2 slices whole-wheat bread
54g
2 leafs lettuce
54g
2 slices tomato
40g
1 tbsp mayonnaise salad dressing
16g
4 strips bacon
33g

Instructions:

1. Cook the Bacon:
- Place the 4 strips of bacon in a skillet over medium heat.
- Cook the bacon until it is crispy and golden brown, about 6-8 minutes, turning occasionally.
- Once cooked, transfer the bacon to a plate lined with paper towels to drain the excess grease. Set aside.
2. Prepare the Bread:
- While the bacon is cooking, lightly toast the 2 slices of whole-wheat bread in a toaster until they are golden brown.
3. Add the Mayonnaise:
- Spread 1 tbsp of mayonnaise evenly on one side of each toasted bread slice.
4. Assemble the Sandwich:
- Place the toasted bread with the mayonnaise side facing up on a clean surface.
- Lay 2 leaves of lettuce on top of one slice of bread.
- Add 2 slices of tomato on top of the lettuce.
- Arrange the 4 strips of cooked bacon evenly on top of the tomato slices.
- Place the second slice of bread on top of the bacon, mayonnaise side down, to complete the sandwich.
5. Serve and Enjoy:
- Cut the sandwich in half diagonally for easier handling if desired.
- Serve immediately as a lunch option or a hearty snack!

Tips:

- Choose high-quality, thick-cut bacon for a meatier bite and enhanced flavor.

- Toasting the bread can add a delightful crunch and prevent it from getting soggy from the toppings.

- Use fresh, crisp lettuce and ripe tomatoes for the best texture and taste.

- If you prefer a lighter option, consider using turkey bacon or a vegan bacon alternative.

- For an added twist, consider mixing some fresh herbs into the mayonnaise or using a flavored mayonnaise.

The BLT sandwich is an easy-to-make classic that guarantees satisfaction with its combination of crispy, savory, and fresh ingredients. By using quality whole-wheat bread and perfectly balancing the amount of bacon, lettuce, tomato, and mayonnaise, you can enjoy a delicious and nutritious meal. Remember to serve it fresh and enjoy every bite!
