Vegetarian BLT Sandwiches

Craving a refreshing and flavorful sandwich, that also happens to be plant-based? If so, you've got to try my delicious and easy Vegetarian BLT Sandwiches. They're made using my smoky homemade tofu bacon, fresh tomatoes and crisp lettuce. Serve with a cold drink, potato chips and enjoy outdoors for the full summer sandwich experience.

📝 Ingredients

• 10-12 pieces of vegan tofu bacon, I use about 3 per sandwich*
• 8 large leaves of lettuce, about 2 per sandwich
• 2 large tomatoes, thinly sliced
• 4 sandwich buns, or 8 slices of bread
• Salt and black pepper
• 1/2 cup mayonnaise, I used vegan mayo
• 1/4 teaspoon lemon zest
• 2-3 teaspoons fresh lemon juice
• 1 small glove garlic, minced or grated
• 1 teaspoon freshly chopped dill
• Salt, to taste

👨‍🍳 Instructions

1. 1Prepare tofu “bacon” if needed. Store-bought vegan bacon can also be used. Make the flavored mayo. To a small bowl, add the mayo, lemon zest, lemon juice, garlic, chopped dill and salt. Mix until completely combined, give it a taste and add any extra seasonings needed. Store in the refrigerator, until needed, and up to 5 days.
2. 2These BLTs can be assembled any way you want them to be. Here is how to assemble mine: toast bread, if preferred, and then spread each side with a few teaspoons of the mayo. To the bottom piece of bread, layer on the lettuce and then top with the tomato slices.
3. 3Lightly salt and pepper the tomato slices for extra flavor. Next, add on the bacon and then place the top slice of bread on. Cut sandwich in half and enjoy. I like to serve with potato chips and a side of fruit.
