BLT Sandwich

This BLT skips the skillet and gets bacon crisp in the microwave while your bread toasts, so the whole sandwich comes together in about 10 minutes. Layer it with juicy tomato, crisp lettuce and a swipe of mayo for the classic combo, no cooking skills required. It's an easy way to fit a satisfying, protein-packed lunch into your macros without any fuss.
