BLT Snacks

BLT Snacks

Sometimes, when I am canning tomatoes, I get tunnel vision. I get so obsessed with getting every last tomato in a jar, I forget to save some to eat fresh. That is exactly what happened last week. So many pretty jars- but no fresh tomatoes left. Plus, I had a taste for a BLT. My solution? Well, I did have a nice supply of cherry tomatoes. Rather than trying to make a sandwich with my teeny tomatoes, I turned them into a snack, instead. I used all the ingredients I would have used for my sandwich, but just scaled them back to fit on crackers. Simple and really good. Just smeared a little mayo on each cracker. Then, I topped it with shredded lettuce, a 1-inch piece of bacon and a slice of cherry tomato. I even added a little shredded sharp cheddar cheese to some. Now my only problem, is waiting for more cherry tomatoes to ripen, so I can make these again.
