Build Your Own BLT Bar Perfect for Summer Dining

Build Your Own BLT Bar Perfect for Summer Dining

Hello pretty ladies, With Memorial Day this weekend & beautiful weather starting to arrive, Patio dining is starting to kick off. I thought it would be fun to share one of my family’s favorite Summer meals with you that’s easy to prepare and perfect for Patio dining.

A build your Own BLT bar. There is no need to slave in a hot kitchen, and a great way to enjoy the yummy Summer tomatoes from the Farmer’s market. Building a food Bar has proven to be a fun way to serve meals and hits with all my following on Pinterest. View my Pizza Building Bar, and Baked Potato Bar

You’ll need:

–Sourdough bread (or bread of your choice) we like lightly toasted

–High-quality Bacon ( I purchase at our local Butcher). I like to have four strips of Bacon per sandwich 

–Ripe Tomatoes (farm fresh or, locally grown)  sliced ( I like to have two per sandwich). Tip: salt and pepper them

–Iceberg lettuce or Roman for a good crunch

–Ripe Avocado ( sliced )

–Sliced cheese. I like to have pepper Jack and cheddar 

Condiments

-Spicy mustard

-Mustard 

-Mayo

Make it a meal!

Serve with:

Serve with a side of fresh fruit and your favorite chips. If you like potatoes salad or macaroni salad, that makes a great side dish. 

Great Cooking Tip:

Tip: To cook Bacon easy and with no mess… cover the cookie sheet with tin foil and lay out Bacon on a cookie sheet and cook at 400…. No mess, easy cleanup, and no slaving over a hot stovetop.

BLT serving BAR:

I like to lay everything out like an assembly line… then everyone can build their own sandwich with all the items they love. Also great for a big crowd. You can get as creative as you want, use your fun serving pieces or paper and plastic depending on your style. 

I have used all of my white serving pieces and used my kitchen island that is closet to my back porch. Making it easy for them to form a line, create their sandwich, and head to the porch to eat Alfresco.

I love a meal you can eat with your hands, which makes for easy clean-up. Build Your Own BLT Bar Perfect for Summer Dining is just that. Hoping you have a beautiful & safe Memorial weekend.
