Strawberry Balsamic 'BLT'
Ingredients
- 2 cups fresh strawberries tops removed & sliced thin
- 8 slices honey oat bread I used Arnold Oat Nut
- 1.5 cups shredded or shaved iceberg preshredded works!
- 12 slices thick cut bacon, cooked
Balsamic Black Pepper Mayonnaise
- 1 cup mayo
- 1 tbsp balsamic glaze
- 1 tbsp diced fresh basil
- 1 tsp freshly ground black pepper
- salt to taste
Instructions
- Whisk together the mayo ingredients and set aside in the fridge for the flavors to marry while your bacon is cooking. You can cook the bacon in a frying pan or on a parchment paper lined baking sheet in the oven (375 degrees for about 20 minutes or until desired crispiness, rotating once).
- Spread a layer of balsamic black pepper mayo on each piece of bread. I like to spread the mayo on both slices of bread, while the original recipe does just one slice per sandwich. Then top one slice of the bread with a layer of strawberries, then shredded lettuce, and then the bacon. Top with the other slice of bread. Slice and serve.
