Basic BLT Sandwich Recipe

Nothing beats the classic bacon, lettuce and tomato sandwich for a southern summer lunch recipe. When the tomatoes are summer fresh, you can't beat the taste.  Switch to a peppered bacon or maybe try one of the local bacon varieties made in your area.


Ingredients

2 slices of whole wheat bread
1-2 lettuce leaves
1 large slice of fresh tomato
3-4 slices of bacon
1 Tablespoon mayonanise

Southern Cooking Instructions

Place the bacon strips in a cold frying pan and cook over medium heat, uncovered.
Turning the bacon frequently, fry until bacon is crisp and thoroughly cooked.
Place on paper towels to drain.
Toast the bread and spread with the mayonnaise.
Assemble the sandwich: toast, lettuce, tomato, bacon, and top with the other slice of toast.
