Classic BLT Sandwich

This is a sandwich that I crave a lot. I am just posting it because I couldn't find it posted already on the Zaar...I couldn't believe that! My ex-DH wondered how I make these, so I decided to post it and send him the recipe. Nothing fancy — just the real, simple, unabridged version. UPDATE: After reading Peg629's review, I have tried it that way, with one slice of toast spread with yellow mustard, and I must say it really, really makes an exceptional BLT! Such a subtle difference, yet genuinely makes a superior BLT, in my opinion! (Thank you Peg629 for that awesome suggestion!)

SERVES 4 , 4 sandwiches (change servings and units)

Ingredients

Directions

  1. 1
    Cook bacon until crispy, then drain on paper towels.
  2. 2
    Toast the 8 slices of bread.
  3. 3
    Spread 1 tablespoon mayo on each slice of toasted bread. (More or less, to taste).
  4. 4
    Add 1 slice of lettuce to 4 pieces of mayo-spreaded toast.
  5. 5
    Add 2 slices of tomato on top of lettuce.
  6. 6
    Arrange 3 slices of bacon evenly on top of tomato. (Break bacon slices in half to fit, if needed.).
  7. 7
    Add 1 slice of lettuce on top of bacon.
  8. 8
    Put the remaining 4 pieces of mayo-spreaded toast on top to finish the sandwiches.
  9. 9
    Enjoy!
  10. 10
    NOTE: I also like to butter the toast slices before adding the mayo -- higher in fat, but tastier, in my opinion!

To be honest, I've made a lot of recipes from RecipeZaar, but I always turn out to be at least a BIT disappointed in them (or maybe I'm just a bad cook xD). But this is one recipe that has never disappointed me. I've been making this sandwich for weeks now right after school and it satisfies my stomach very much so (: Thank you for posting!

    A Classic recipe that is always a winner. I like to use a better quality white bread rather than "kids" sandwich white bread. Makes a huge difference. IMHO. In our family half use Hellmann's Lite Mayo the other half, Miracle Whip. It's all good!

    Stacky, great again. Just a little trick we use here, mayo on one slice of bread and yellow mustard on the other piece of bread. Trust and try ! LOL...I was given it this way eons ago as a child and have turned many on to this.
