Mediterranean BLT

By cndrela13

The idea and name came from the FlatBelly Diet cookbook, but I’ve seriously changed the recipe. In fact it isn’t really a BLT anymore. It’s a BST (the “S” is for spinach).

Ingredients

• 1 Whole Wheat English Muffin, sliced and toasted
• 2 slices of bacon, I used turkey bacon
• Several spinach leaves
• 2 large slices of tomato
• 2 Tbls of Olive Tapenade, my recipe is posted on this site.
• A little salt and pepper if desired, however the saltiness of the olive tapenade and bacon will probably be sufficient for most.

Preparation

Step 1

Cut the bacon in half, so that the slices will fit nicely on the English Muffin. Cook the bacon to your desired doneness.

Slice and toast the English Muffin.

Spread olive tapenade on each side of the English Muffin; top with spinach leaves. Add the bacon and top with tomato slice. I serve the sandwich “open faced”, sprinkle salt and pepper on top – if desired.
