Chopped BLT Sandwiches

This chopped and dressed format of a BLT is pure bliss – you get the best bite every time! A sub roll would better contain the little pieces but these small brioche ones were calling to me as the right size – smaller than a traditional one, bigger than a slider…the perfect lunch size I tell you.

Italian ones will be up next! Or maybe caprese! Or chicken caesar! I love that this format would easily use leftovers or be a good way to not need a whole chicken piece per person or whatever.

These would be great on-the-go with the mixture in a container and spooned into rolls when serving. I picture a sunny day when we head to the pool or beach and bring along this instant lunch/dinner! Ok, off to the pool.
