Why I love this recipe:
- The Ultimate BLT – The flavors of the pimento cheese in the BLT pair perfectly with the crisp bacon and juicy tomato. It’s the best way to enjoy it!
- Pimento Cheese – This is the star of the sandwich so I recommend using my homemade pimento cheese recipe, which takes minutes to whip together. You can use the leftovers to dip crackers and veggies.
- Easy – It takes just a few minutes to make, and is a lunch or dinner everyone will love.
How to make a Pimento Cheese BLT:
Cook Bacon: Use good quality bacon and add it to a skillet over low heat. Cook, turning often, until crisp on both sides. Remove to a paper towel lined plate.
