Ingredients

4 slices of your choice of bread
1 package of tempeh bacon or your favorite vegan bacon
1 large slicing tomato, thinly sliced
Salt & pepper
6 leaves of romaine or iceberg lettuce
Vegan mayo, to taste

Instructions

Toast the bread and have it ready aside.
Cook the vegan bacon according to package instructions.
While the bacon cooks, lay the tomato slices flat on the cutting board and sprinkle some salt and pepper on them.
Evenly spread the vegan mayo on all 4 bread slices, place 3 leaves of lettuce on two of the slices, then add the tomato slices on top of both lettuces, top with 3 strips of vegan bacon on each sandwich.
Top with the other slices of bread and cut in half.

Notes

Change things up by mixing 4 tablespoons of pesto, sriracha, or chipotle into the vegan mayo.

Don’t overly toast the bread: While it’s not technically necessary to toast the bread (but it is highly recommended), if you do, make sure not to overly toast the bread. Lightly toasted bread will make a sturdier sandwich and add crunch without hurting the roof of your mouth.

To save time: Prepare a big batch of vegan bacon and refrigerate or freeze it for every time you have a vegan BLT craving.

Experiment with ingredients: Try out different breads, types of vegan bacon, and other ‘add-ins’ to find your perfect combination.
