The Perfect Summer Sandwich

With summer drawing to an end, I just wanted to talk about one of my favorite sandwiches to have, especially in the summer months.  The classic BLT!  Bam!

Start with Bacon.  If you’re cooking a bunch of bacon at a time, the easiest way is to place it in a single layer on a cookie sheet or jelly roll sheet and put it in the oven.

350 degrees for about 15-20 minutes until it is to your desired doneness. (btw, is doneness a word??)

Next you’ll want to locate the Mayo or in our house, hubby’s more into the Miracle Whip, and the cheese.  Oh and the lettuce and tomato, just sayin.

We didn’t have any tomatoes though, but Mayo your bread slices (both sides) and place lettuce on one side.

Top with cheese.  Now we used Jalapeno Cheese this time, but your favorite type works just fine!

And the bacon.  You can’t forget the bacon in a BLT minus the T plus Cheese sandwich 🙂

And there ya go!

Happy Monday!

      Here we are, halfway through the next month and I still haven’t recapped/talked about my birthday. I should tell you I hate birthdays. Not because I don’t like getting older. No, I’m fine with that. That means I’m still alive. I just hate the day. In more recent years I haven’t had good birthdays….

  • Strawberry Moon

    They call it a Strawberry Moon. Apparently from what I’ve read it’s because having a full moon on the Summer Solstice told olden cultures it was time to harvest. Seems a little early to me… I guess in Europe Strawberries aren’t common so they call it a Rose moon. It’s also known as a honey…

  1. Never tried cooking bacon in the oven. Do you have to turn it over at all?

    Jalapeno cheese sounds pretty good. Is it similar to pepper jack?

    And I'd have to put a bunch of onions on too 🙂

  2. That's how they did bacon in the military. Lots of mouths to feed and they definitely did bunches of bacon.

    And I think doneness is a word when talking bacon talk. 😉

    Will have to think about this. I don't normally like BLTs, but yours looks really good!

    Have a great day! 😀
