Inspired by Callie’s Hot Little Biscuit BLT, let me introduce the roasted tomato BLT.
Why roasted tomatoes? WHY NOT.
Unless you have a garden fresh tomato, a lot of grocery store tomatoes are kind of bland.
Roasting grape tomatoes with Kinder’s the Blend and olive oil gives this BLT a little extra flavor.
Everything about this BLT is a little extra, actually.
Jordan Olive Oil. Basil from the Garden. Sea Salt. Pane Italiano Bread. Extra thick bacon. Lemon in the Duke’s Mayo.
The little details come together make this an extra special BLT.
Also, let’s talk about the PLATES. Better Homes & Gardens melamine plates from Walmart are sturdy, so pretty, and feel like you’d pay a small fortune for a set at a cute boutique. They are a whopping $2.97 each.
Wines to pair with the Roasted Tomato BLT
I like a light Chardonnay, Sparkling, or Fume Blanc with bacon. Rosé is always a good choice in the summer, too! You can find these wines at Walmart.
- here’s a good list of summer wines
- Chandon California Brut Sparkling Wine
- Decoy Rosé
- Butter Chardonnay
