This has to be one of my favourite times of the year with all of the fresh field ripened tomatoes around and my favourite way to enjoy them has to be in a BLT or a bacon, lettuce and tomato sandwich. BLT sandwiches never get boring and I like to experiment with them adding different things. Two of the best ways to go are with a BLT with basil mayo or a BLT with avocado or guacamole and so when I made the pesto guacamole I knew that I would have to use it in a BLT! You just cannot go wrong combining fresh rip tomatoes, basil pesto and avocados with bacon in a sandwich! I will definitely be enjoying a lot of theses pesto guacamole sandwiches over the next few days!

Pesto guacamole sounds like a dream come true to me! Looks like a mouthwatering sandwich, Kevin. I'd love to take a big bite out of my screen!
Love the big fat tomato slices in this bad boy – it looks terrific Kevin.
I just woke up prepared to eat breakfast…but now I am just wanting lunch! Looks ah may zing!!
Just when you thought a BLT couldn't get any better…I mean, come on! Why didn't I think of this?!
omg. I am going to make this right now, Thanks!
I totally want this for lunch right now!!!
Oh my yum!! I need this for dinner tonight 😀
That is so not enough lettuce for me. I can eat a sandwich with just mayo and lettuce.
Kevin, I have a question not related to this. The thai green curry comes in a plastic round sort of jar with the curry paste in a plastic bag stuffed inside. Am I supposed to take the curry paste and transfer it all to the sort of jar thing or leave it in the plastic bag and in said jar? Please help this silly old woman. 🙂
I just drooled all over my computer.
This sandwich is so colorful and that tomato is just so thick and juicy and perfect! mmmm, love them!
This is my kind of sandwich! Love it!
You are the KING of BLT sammies Kevin!

Anonymous: Yep, you could definitely add more lettuce! You can leave the curry paste in the bag in the jar or transfer it from the bag to the jar.
Those tomatoes look unbelievable! So yummy!
I will definitely be making this. What kind of bread do u use in your sandwiches? It always looks so yummy
That blt is huge! Guacamole on a blt is an amazing idea!
