How Do You Improve Perfection?

Tonight we were just going to have BLT's for dinner. After a week of fixing "complicated orders" for our friend from Wales, we wanted something quick, easy and delicious...hence the BLT's. But then Angela asked me to make some guacamole and that got me thinking, which is always dangerous.

My train of thought went something like this...
Thanks to the tip from one of my sisters, I know avacados are good on BLT's.
Guacamole is 99% avacado, so maybe it is good on BLT's. But what could I replace the mayo with? How 'bout some of the crema we used on the fish tacos we made earlier in the week? So that's what we did. By the way, crema is part mayo, part sour cream, a dash of lime juice, a sprinkle of cilantro, a zesting of garlic, and a full helping of AWESOME!

Okay so picture one is all the required ingredients, minus the bread.






Spread on the crema.

mmmm, BACON.




Lettuce and Tomato come to the party too!


Finally, pile on some home-made, chunky guacamole.



Eat and Bask in the Glory!!!!!

This is really a good sandwich.  The buttery avacado offsets the crunchy bacon while the hint of lime, freshness of the cilantro and kick of garlic bring the flavor profile to the next level.

We are still contemplating a name for this great sandwich.  Its either going to be "Baja BLT" since it was inspired by baja fish tacos or "Knocked Up BLT" since the flavors are knocked up a level compared to a regular BLT.  It'll be on the menu of our restaurant (whenever that happens).  And since this sandwich is destined for greatness,  let it be known now and forever that we are the originators!

Bon appetite y'all.
