I love eating a hearty breakfast. In Mexico, breakfast is often the biggest meal of the day. That is why it is important to have lots of delicious options to choose from.
One type of sandwich that I learned about after moving to the United States was the classic BLT sandwich, which consists of bacon, lettuce and tomato between two pieces of perfectly toasted bread. I really enjoy BLT sandwiches now, but I am always looking for ways to make a classic even better.
While you can obviously eat a classic BLT for breakfast, I think that to make it a true breakfast meal, it needs a little bit more. That is why I came up with this Tex-Mex Breakfast BLT recipe that I am sharing today.
How To Make a Tex-Mex Breakfast BLT
To make this breakfast version of a BLT, you have to start with a good base. What better way to make a breakfast sandwich, then with a delicious English muffin? My favorite brand and the one that I used for this recipe is Bays English Muffins.
These are my favorite because they taste so good and easily elevate any meal – including a BLT! They are so easy to use, because they come pre-sliced. I have found that they have a softer, more delicious texture than any other brand of English muffin that I have used in the past.
When you buy them at the store, make sure to look in the dairy case, where they are chilled to maintain freshness.
Other than the Bays English Muffins, you will also need the following:
- Eggs
- Bacon
- Roasted Tomatoes
- Avocado
- Lettuce
- Chipotle Aioli
I like to serve this particular sandwich open-faced, but you can also top it with the other half of the English muffin for a more classic look.
There isn’t a really big secret to putting this together. I started by toasting the Bay’s English muffin, then topping it with the aioli, followed by the lettuce, bacon, roasted tomatoes, avocado slices, and the over-easy egg.
Overall, this is a simple, yet delicious breakfast meal that really hits the spot. Let me know in the comments below how it turned out!
