Bacon + lettuce + heirloom tomatoes + spicy avocado spread. This is the makings of an ultimate summer sandwich.
You need a good tomato to make a good BLT. And the season is right for picking. I would love to give all the credit to the just ripe, juicy heirlooms but I can’t. Because BACON. Bacon always wins.
Look for the thick sliced bacon, like this one for the best results: Sugar Free Pork Bacon.
This sandwich gets a make-over with a lettuce wrap and a creamy, mashed avocado spread with sea salt and chili flakes. Smoky, salty, crunchy and refreshing for any summer occasion.
Enjoy!
