This has to be one of my favourite times of the year with all of the fresh field ripened tomatoes! I am a big fan of tomatoes and it is hard to beat a field ripened tomato so I have been picking them up by the basket full lately. Of course one of the best ways to enjoy some tomatoes is in the ever so simple and yet ever so good, BLT! BLT’s are great with just the bacon, lettuce and tomato but I always have fun adding different things and this time it was a cool and creamy guacamole . Guacamole and bacon are a fabulous flavour combo and the tomato and avocado combo is hard to beat so you know that this guacamole BLT sandwich is going to be a winner!
Just look at the perfectly ripe tomato!
This guacamole BLT can be a bit messy but it is definitely worth it!

September 13, 2012 at 11:05 pmEnd of summer tomatoes are always the best, but that just might be the prettiest tomato I've ever seen. BLTs were already on the menu for this weekend, now I need to add avocado too. And since this is the last hurrah, I may just throw some lobster on there, why not? And top it off with some Kewpie-brand mayo. You inspire me.

September 14, 2012 at 7:42 pmWhat a terrific idea to add guac – a much better alternative than the mayo my husband loves to slather on!
