10 Creative BLT Recipes

I’ve never met a BLT I didn’t like but with all of the tomatoes we have in the garden this year, we’re going to have to come up with some new ways to enjoy them.  I scoured Pinterest for some yummy alternatives to your basic BLT and today I’m sharing 10 creative BLT recipes that I think look amazing!

One of my very favorite things about summer has always been warm, sun-ripened, homegrown tomatoes. Pulled off of the vine, they have this earthy smell which just smells like summer. One of my favorite ways to enjoy them is in a BLT sandwich. Bacon, lettuce and tomato on yummy toasted, fresh bread.

Ever since we got married, Kevin has planted a big garden. It has everything from peppers, tomatoes and cucumbers to squash, pumpkins and gourds. He weeds and waters it, fertilizes it and nurtures it. It’s his garden.
