Grilled Cheese BLT ♥

Two classics in one, the grilled cheese sandwich & the BLTOH MY. May I just say that there are far too few sandwiches in this household? Perhaps it's no wonder, then, that on the rare occasion that bread, bacon, cheese and tomatoes were on hand at the same time, there was no deciding whether to make a grilled cheese or a BLT -- and so I combined them. Thank you, Sandwich Gods, thank you.

MAKE IT A MEAL Nothing like soup and a sandwich for lunch, perhaps the light, fresh-tomato Summer's Tomato Soup?



FROM THE VEGETABLE RECIPE ARCHIVES Hmm. I do have bread and tomatoes. Maybe it's time to 'update the photos' (always a good excuse ...) for 2005's luscious Eggplant, Tomato & Mozzarella Sandwiches and Artichoke & Pepper Grilled Cheese Sandwiches.

TWO YEARS AGO Tomato & Rice Salad, a tasty combination that I re-made this summer, still tastes great.

Grilled Cheese BLT

Hands-on time: 10 minutes
Time to table: 15 minutes
Serves 1 (easily multiplied)

2 slices bacon
2 slices bread
Thin slather of mayonnaise
Sprinkling of a good melting cheese (I loved the chipotle cheddar)
Sprinkle of good pepper
1 wonderful tomato
Lettuce if you have it

In a non-stick skillet, cook the bacon til crispy. Pour off the bacon grease into a glass jar. (Save it for another use. If you want ideas, just search on 'bacon grease' or 'bacon fat' in the Search Box on top.) Spread mayonnaise, cheese and pepper on the bread slices. Top one side with bacon, then the tomato and lettuce. Use your best balancing skills to combine the two slices and put in the hot skillet. Cook for a couple of minutes per side, til the bread crisps up and the cheese melts. Slice and chow down.
