The Ultimate Summer B.L.T. Board

blt board

This BLT Board is simple to put together and sure to please a crowd. Summer recipes are meant to be bright and colorful! Heirloom tomatoes are the star of this board and you can add as many varieties as you can get your hands on! Your local Farmer’s Market is usually the best place to find some great options.

You can be as creative as you like with your BLT board, but I like to include the following:

INGREDIENTS:

  • Several Variations of Heirloom Tomatoes (You can also do some roasted tomatoes)
  • Salt & Pepper
  • Mayo
  • Basil Pesto Aioli (Just mix in your favorite pesto with mayo and add splash of lemon juice)
  • Avocado
  • Bacon
  • Peppered Bacon
  • Bib Lettuce
  • Fried Eggs (We put this one on a separate dish)
  • Toasted Sourdough Bread (I used a rosemary sourdough and it was delicious!)
  • Basil For Garnish

SERVE WITH:

We like to serve this with a summer vegetable salad. (Martha’s Stewart’s Recipe is great!) It’s also great with grilled corn on the cob or roasted potatoes.
