Caesar BLT Wrap

The humble BLT has certainly earned its place as a beloved go-to sandwich staple over the years, and for good reason. Straightforward, filling, and always a bit comforting, it’s a testament to the effectiveness of using simple ingredients to create something great (plus, it has bacon). But that doesn’t mean you can’t tinker with the formula every so often. Do you know what else is a beloved staple in its own right? The Caesar salad. And as it turns out, the rich, peppery, cheesy, umami-filled flavors of our Ultimate Caesar Salad Kit are a perfect match for a BLT. Now, let’s take things even further and swap out the usual bread with a multigrain tortilla wrap. Put it all together, and you have a Caesar BLT Wrap. And as you’re about to find out, it’s a welcome upgrade to an already delicious classic. 

Ingredients

Directions

  1. Cook the bacon to your preference, then start slicing the tomatoes.
  2. Assemble the salad kit and place it inside the multi-grain tortillas, along with the bacon and tomatoes. Serve and enjoy!

CBLT? ABLT? More BLT Variations…

So, who can we thank for the invention of this cherished sandwich? The origins of the BLT sandwich are not definitively attributed to a single individual, but it’s believed to have emerged in the early 20th century in the United States. The sandwich likely evolved from earlier variations that included bacon and lettuce, with the addition of sliced tomatoes becoming popular during the tomato harvest season — something we can definitely appreciate. 

And while the above recipe is an excellent variation on the original recipe, we thought it’d be fun to offer you up a few more, so here goes:

  • Avocado BLT: Here’s an obvious one: Add slices of ripe avocado to a traditional BLT for a creamy twist that adds more richness to the overall flavor.
  • Egg BLT: Top your BLT with a fried or poached egg for a protein-packed breakfast or brunch option.
  • Pesto BLT: Spread pesto sauce on the bread before assembling the sandwich for an herby and savory flavor boost with an Italian-inspired twist.
  • Chipotle BLT: Add a smear of chipotle mayo or chipotle sauce to give your BLT a spicy kick.
  • Cucumber BLT: Layer thin slices of cucumber along with the bacon, lettuce, and tomato for a refreshing and crunchy variation.
  • BLT Croissant: Serve your BLT ingredients on a buttery croissant for a more indulgent and elegant take on the classic sandwich.
