The BLT Cookbook
Our Favorite Sandwich
By Michele Anna Jordan

     Bacon, Lettuce, and Tomato: the three main ingredients in the all-American BLT sandwich. Usually topped with mayonnaise, this sandwich is one of the most loved, not to mention one of the easiest to make, any one has ever had the pleasure of trying. So how in the world could someone come up with a cookbook based on a sandwich that only uses 5 different ingredient--all of which take only 2 to 3 minutes to combine? Easy! Just take this tasty classic recipe, add some twists and a dash of imagination, and voilé!

       From BLT on a stick and BLT soups like Butter Lettuce Soup with Bacon and Tomato to the Fisherman’s BLT and BLT inspired salads like Potato Salad Bacon and Tomatoes, Jordan has come up with amazing, drool-worthy recipes, all based around the most famous sandwich ever invented.

      I love this cookbook! The recipes are easy to do and so original that even someone whose only cooking history involved burning water would have a hard time messing them up. Jordan includes the history of the BLT and goes into what gave the inspiration for the recipe in each chapter. I could hardly keep my stomach from growling instinctively as I read through this. I definitely recommend this book for anyone who’s interested in putting a twist on their favorite sandwich.
