World's Greatest BLT

For dinner last night, I decided to make something simple and fast. It's not so much a recipe, just sandwich elements that are delicious when put together! I used Morningstar Farm Vegetarian Bacon, which is actually pretty good.
For the side, I made Kale chips. I saw them first on Kath Eats Real Food, and thought they sounded interesting. I kind of mounded them too much because the edge ones got very crisp but the center ones and bottom just kind of steamed. Overall it was an easy, fun, and delicious dinner!


World's Greatest BLT

4 slices of whole grain sandwich bread
2 oz. herbed goat cheese at room temp.
1/2 avocado, sliced
1 tomato, sliced
4 lettuce leaves
6 slices of bacon, crisped

Toast the bread, smear with goat cheese, top with avocado, tomato, lettuce and bacon.


Kale Chips

4 c. kale, chopped
1 tsp. Emeril's Essence seasoning
1 tbsp. EVOO

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.
Toss kale in oil and spices on a baking sheet.
Roast for 10 minutes.
Serve with hot sauce and ketchup.

Haven't tried Morningstar farms bacon yet but perhaps now I will have to seek it out. I tried some bacon style tempeh strips in a salad recently and they were quite good. Not entirely bacon-like in texture but very flavorful.
