Pesto BLTs image

"I first tasted this delicious combination in a local bistro," recalls Robyn Larabee. She's been making the hefty sandwiches ever since at home in Lucknow, Onatario. It's a tasty way to use up those last, languishing garden tomatoes! TIP: Robyn says her BLTs are especially good served on rustic, homemade whole wheat-and-honey bread.

This was a flop. The pesto overpowered the other flavors of the sandwich.

I'm not a big fan of mayonnaise, so I used avocado instead. It was a great substitute and it added a healthy twist to the sandwich.

I made this sandwich with turkey bacon instead of regular bacon and it was just as good. It's a great way to make the sandwich a little healthier.

This sandwich is a great way to get your kids to eat their vegetables. My kids loved the pesto and they didn't even notice the spinach.

I'm not a huge fan of tomatoes, but I really enjoyed them in this sandwich. The pesto helped to balance out the acidity of the tomatoes.
