Vegetarian BLT Sandwiches

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. 1

   Prepare 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. 2

   These 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. 3

   Lightly 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.
