preview for BLT Sushi is the Fun Way to Make Your Favorite Sandwich Low-Carb.

We consider the BLT to be a major food group around here and that's why we've made just about every form of BLT we can think of (have you SEEN BLT Egglets??). Before you can say anything, we know these's aren't technically "sushi". It's just bacon rolled around some lettuce and tomatoes, but we love it and think it's super fun to call it sushi!

Ingredients

10
slices bacon
2 tbsp.
mayonnaise
1 c.
chopped tomatoes
1/2
avocado, diced
1 c.
shredded romaine
Kosher salt
Freshly ground black pepper

Directions

1. Step 1Preheat oven to 400° and place a wire rack over a large baking sheet. Place 5 slices bacon side by side. Lift one end of every other bacon slice and place another bacon slice on top of the lifted pieces. Lay slices back. Next, lift opposite bacon slices back and place a bacon slice on top. Lay slices back down. Repeat weaving process until you have a bacon weave of 5 strips by 5 strips. Set bacon weave on prepared baking sheet.
2. Step 2Bake until bacon is cooked but still pliable, 20 minutes.
3. Step 3Pat bacon weave with paper towels to drain fat and transfer to a piece of plastic wrap (it helps with rolling!)
4. Step 4Spread mayo on top of bacon weave in a thin layer, then top bottom third of bacon weave with tomatoes and avocado. Sprinkle romaine all over and season with salt and pepper.
5. Step 5Starting from the bottom, tightly roll, then slice crosswise into “sushi rolls”.
