THE WORLD'S BEST B L T SANDWICH
So simple, and yet so many subtle differences transform "good" to "world's best." the way a sandwich is assembled is key to how good it tastes. A gread sandwich is never dry (too bready). I pull out and discard all the soft white centers from baguettes, leaving two cano-shaped halves. This hollowed out bread is then packed full and doused with a generous splash of "house" dressing. Closing one of these sandwiches is like shutting an overpacked suitcase!

Steps:
- First make the house dressing, by combining all ingredients in a blender except for the olive oil.
- With the motor running, very slowly drizzle in the olive oil and mix until it is fully combined.
- Under a broiler or on a griddle, lightly toast the inside of the baguette.
- Combine the mayonnaise and pesto.
- Spread the pesto mayonnaise all over the inside of both halves of the baguette.
- Lay the bacon along the length of the bottom half of the bread.
- Lay the tomato slices on top of the bacon and drizzle with the house dressing.
- Fill the remaining cavity with the lettuce leaves.
- Close the sandwich tightly.
- Cut on the diagonal with a sharp serrated knife into 2 to 4 pieces.
- You may need toothpicks to keep the sandwiches together.

CLASSIC BLT SANDWICH
This is a sandwich that I crave a lot. I am just posting it because I couldn't find it posted already on the Zaar...I couldn't believe that! My ex-DH wondered how I make these, so I decided to post it and send him the recipe. Nothing fancy -- just the real, simple, unabridged version. UPDATE: After reading Peg629's review, I have tried it that way, with one slice of toast spread with yellow mustard, and I must say it really, really makes an exceptional BLT! Such a subtle difference, yet genuinely makes a superior BLT, in my opinion! (Thank you Peg629 for that awesome suggestion!)

Steps:
- Cook bacon until crispy, then drain on paper towels.
- Toast the 8 slices of bread.
- Spread 1 tablespoon mayo on each slice of toasted bread. (More or less, to taste).
- Add 1 slice of lettuce to 4 pieces of mayo-spreaded toast.
- Add 2 slices of tomato on top of lettuce.
- Arrange 3 slices of bacon evenly on top of tomato. (Break bacon slices in half to fit, if needed.).
- Add 1 slice of lettuce on top of bacon.
- Put the remaining 4 pieces of mayo-spreaded toast on top to finish the sandwiches.
- Enjoy!
- NOTE: I also like to butter the toast slices before adding the mayo -- higher in fat, but tastier, in my opinion!
