WHAT IS A EBLT ???

Our Chicago Grand-daughters came up to see Opa on their spring break.  Our favorite oldest son took us all out to lunch at a lovely restaurant.  On the menu was a EBLT.  What is that?  It is a bacon, lettuce, and tomato sandwich topped with a fried egg cooked to medium, and a slice of good Cheddar cheese. 

In the summer when I make BLTs, I use thick slices of wonderful home-grown tomatoes.  The tomato is the star of the show.  An EBLT is a wonderful winter version of a BLT.  The Cheddar and the egg give a whole new flavor profile while the homey BLT flavors are still present too.

I should have taken a picture of the sandwich as I wanted to share my discovery.  I didn't.  I didn't even take a picture of the half of sandwich which I brought home for supper.  Lately I think I am carry my head under my arm.  I didn't take pictures of our Grand-daughters and Son either.

So here is my "picture" of a fun sandwich to try at home.
