The Classic BLT

Prep Time:

10 mins.

Cook Time:

5 mins.

Yield:

4 sandwiches

What makes the BLT a classic Southern comfort food? If it’s not the crispy bacon, fresh lettuce, and sun-ripened Creole tomatoes, it’s gotta be the creamy Blue Plate Mayo slathered on the toasty white bread. Either way, it’s a soul-satisfying blend of flavors and textures in every bite.

Ingredients

  • 8 slices bread, lightly toasted
  • 1/2 cup Blue Plate® Mayonnaise
  • Salt and pepper to taste, optional
  • 8 thick slices Creole tomato (or other heirloom tomato)
  • 8 leaves butter lettuce
  • 12 ounces bacon, cooked crispy

Directions

  1. Spread the mayonnaise evenly on the 8 slices of bread.
  2. Salt and pepper the tomatoes, if desired.
  3. Layer the 4 bottom slices of bread with lettuce, tomatoes and then bacon.
  4. Assemble the top slices of bread, slice each sandwich in half and serve.
