Sourdough Caprese BLAT Sandwiches + Roasted Garlic Coconut Butter (Vegan) – Sincerely Tori
BLTs, how do you feel about them? If you just answered that they’re the greatest invention ever then (ding, ding ding, give ’em a prize!!!) I think we can still be friends. Phew, I was a little bit worried for a sec. Now, to be completely honest, I was never a fan of actual bacon, even before I went plant-based. However, when I first tried coconut bacon I immediately fell in love with it. So is it weird to imagine inanimate objects like sandwiches having their own personality? I think if a BLT had a personality it’d be all self-assured and possibly even a bit arrogant about itself. I mean come on, how could it not be when it’s so popular, right? Now a BLAT, they’d probably be a little less conceited from always living in the shadow of their more well-known competition, but I bet they’d still be pretty confident about themselves in sandwich world. I realize that messing with what some might consider such a perfectly balanced thing as a BLT is akin to playing with fire. Seriously, just upgrading from a BLT to a BLAT is pushing the limits of perfection…..but I couldn’t help myself you guys, I had to do it! You know what though? I think you’ll agree that this is one scenario where “less is more” doesn’t have to apply because this sandwich is killer amazing! The roasted garlic coconut butter, mixed with the sourdough bread, PLUS the caprese twist, make the final thing like a party of flavors in your mouth. I used Follow Your Heart mozzarella style “cheese” but you can use a different type of plant-based cheese. It’s sure to have you completely forgetting your plain old BLT. Personally, I don’t think there’s any going back for me now, this sandwich has won me over completely. Basically, you’ve just got to try these once to see what I mean. Disregard any preconceived ideals you have about sandwiches and just DO IT! If you thought this a classic BLT was as good as it gets, think again!
