B.L.E.A.T. Sandwich

The BLEAT Sandwich takes the BLT to a whole other level. Have you ever heard of it? Better yet have you ever had one? If not, stop what you're doing right now and go make one. Seriously. This sandwich is the king of BLT's. So what is a BLEAT exactly? It is a bacon, lettuce, egg, avocado and tomato sandwich, yea that's right. It's just perfect and will blow your mind.

For my BLEAT sandwich I used thick slices of Texas Toast bread from Trader Joe's, I slathered on a little bit of mayo and then some lettuce, tomato and avocado slices. I fried up an over easy egg and topped off the entire sandwich with some crispy turkey bacon (feel free to sub in regular bacon!).

I love hearing new variations on sandwiches, especially classic ones like the BLT. Please feel free to let me know what kind of sandwich variations you love or have even created, I may even post about it here!

Eggs in a Basket

After a long weekend away and lots of time spent in the car yesterday the last thing  I wanted to do when I got home was cook a big meal. But after most trips (this one included), I wasn't in the mood to eat out. So I decided to make some breakfast for dinner and whip up some eggs in a basket. The concept is really simple, take some toast, cut a hole, crack an egg in the middle and you have a delicious breakfast. Even though it's the same thing as eating eggs and toast for some reason eggs in a basket just tastes so much better. The yolk becomes super gooey and just oozes right onto the bread, it's making my mouth water just thinking about it. 

I used Texas Toast from Trader Joe's for my bread because it's thick and butter and crisps up so nicely. To me it's the perfect bread for this meal, but feel free to change it up and use your favorite bread. A bagel also makes for a good eggs in a basket, especially since the hole is already there ready to use!
