B.B.T.A (Bacon, Basil, Tomato & Avocado Sandwich)

B.B.T.A (Bacon, Basil, Tomato & Avocado Sandwich)

I love BLT sandwiches! They were my favorite growing up, and they still are. In this version, the basil adds great flavor, and the avocado gives it a wonderful taste & texture. I use a par-baked loaf of sourdough bread and bake it right before making the sandwiches, so it’s hot & fresh, which makes the sandwich extra special. This easy BLT recipe paired nicely with a bowl of tomato soup and some sweet potato chips.

B.B.T.A (Bacon, Basil, Tomato & Avocado Sandwich)

  • One small loaf of par-baked bread, baked per instructions
  • Mayonnaise, to taste

How to Make a B.B.T.A (Bacon, Basil, Tomato & Avocado Sandwich):
