I'm 42yrs old, and just had my first BLT sandwich. For years I had zero ambition to even try one, tomato was my biggest turn off. Well, today, I decided to try one, homemade, and it was Delicious!

Had a pack of thick cut bacon in the freezer that needed to be cooked, some fresh tomatoes, plenty of lettuce, and some brioche bread, so why not?

I enjoy small amounts of tomatoes in other meals, such as tacos, pasta, salads, but in small amounts. I guess I was "afraid" of a tomato being a main ingredient in a sandwich. Well, I was wrong, and pleasantly surprised how good a BLT is!

Anyways, that's all I got, looking forward to my next one. Thanks for reading😊

Edit: Holy smokes, I didn't expect such a great response, thank you to everyone. Woke up to all these comments and no way I can respond to all of them.

So just to touch on a few things since I wasn't fully descriptive in how I made it.

1. Yes I did toast the bread, buttered both sides and toasted it on my griddle.

2. Yes I used mayo, plenty of it, and it was Dukes

3. I also salt and peppered the tomatoes.

4. I actually bought avocados yesterday, but sadly they weren't ready yet.

5. Looking forward to trying it with fresh garden tomatoes later this summer!

I think my wife is tired of me talking about how good it was, haha. Every bite just got better and better. I think I prefer a BLT to a club sandwich now, something I never thought I'd say😲
