Open Face BLT

Plan Z Phase: This is Z3.5 (ZReboot 3.5) recipe. I’ve had a hankering lately for a BLT. I decide to ‘give in to the urge’ but I managed to make it very low carb. My mother used to make BLT’s when it was really hot outside. That way she didn’t have to turn on the oven. So every end of summer I seem to have to have my BLT.

Servings: Serves 4

Ingredients:

• 16 pieces of bacon, cooked. I like mine cooked til crisp. My husband is the wizard of bacon cooking.
• 1 large tomatoes, sliced into ¼” thick slices
• lettuce leaves (I used regular iceberg lettuce)
• 2 avocados, peeled and sliced
• 4 pieces of low carb bread (mine has just 9 grams of carbs per slice. Julian brand)
• mayo
• butter

Instructions:

To assemble: Toast your low carb bread. Spread one side with melted butter.

On top of the buttered side, add your lettuce. Then layer on the bacon and the avocado. Top with the slices of sliced tomato. Spread a tablespoon of mayo across the top. Then grate on optional sea salt and pepper. Eat with a knife and fork. You’ll hardly notice the top piece of bread is missing.

Enjoy!

Cheers,
