BLT Boiled Egg Sandwich

We love a classic BLT as much as the next person, but this version is low carb, keto friendly, and packed with protein. We swapped the bread for hard boiled eggs. These make an easy and filling lunch or a fun snack at your next get together!

Ingredients

6 large hard boiled eggs
2 tablespoons mayonnaise
1 teaspoon mustard
6 slices center cut bacon fried crisp
2 campari or cocktail tomatoes
6 small pieces romaine lettuce
Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

Slice the boiled eggs in half, being careful to leave the yolk in place. Carefully cut the rounded bottom off of half of the eggs so that it will stand up flat as the bottom piece of the sandwich.
Add the mayonnaise and mustard to a small bowl and whisk to combine.
Spread the mayo mixture over the bottom piece of each egg, and top with a piece of lettuce.
Slice the tomatoes and break the bacon into small pieces about the size of the eggs.
Arrange the tomatoes and bacon over the lettuce and top with the other half of the egg.
Skewer with a toothpick to hold the sandwiches together and sprinkle with salt and pepper, to taste.
Serve immediately.

Notes

Mustard isn't traditionally used in a BLT, but we like the flavor it adds with the egg. You can leave it out if preferred.

Campari tomatoes are bigger than cherry tomatoes, but smaller than traditional tomatoes. They're sweet and have a great texture, even in the off season. Highly recommend!

We use the Instant Pot to boil our eggs easily and they always peel like a dream. Instructions for making Instant Pot eggs are in the blog post above.
