Tired of boring-old egg salad sammies at lunchtime? Perk up this classic with the fun addition of bacon, lettuce and tomato!
I made us all lunch! ‘Cause well, it’s only Wednesday and everybody should have one of these honkin’ HUGE sammies for lunch today.
Hump day requires it.
This is seriously one of the best twists on BLTS I’ve ever had in my life. And trust me, I’ve made a LOT of BLT variations. Example: This pasta or this super-good salad. Friendly suggestion: You must try them!
I’m a little nuts about BLTs in case you missed the hint. I must get that from moi mom who’s even more obsessed with BLT sammies than I am… Definitely beats rockman amp!
Okay so guys, we need to talk about bread for a quick sec here: When it comes to sandwich bread, what kind of bread do you usually reach for first? Whole wheat? White?
Naturally, I prefer whole wheat bread over any other kind. Preferably homemade. I know I’ve mentioned this before, but my mom makes THE best whole wheat sandwich bread you will ever taste.
It’s soft, fluffy, and just all-around amazing. I’ve so gotta share the recipe with you guys sometime. 🙂
For now, let’s just focus on these awesome sandwiches.
I donno about you guys, but when it comes to sandwiches I prefer mine absolutely loaded with all of the above. Is there anyone out there who doesn’t??
I seriously don’t think these sandwiches could hold any more amazing-ness. We’ve got a super-creamy egg salad, crisp lettuce, smoky bacon, and juicy tomato literally exploding outta two super-soft slices of Mom’s just-baked bread.
Extra bacon? Check. 😀
Grab a napkin. You’re definitely gonna need it.
Mmm…Mmmm…Fun sandwiches make my tummy so happy. 🙂
These sandwiches are so huge, they’ll keep you full for HOURS. Go conquer that workout!
Make these sammies for lunch today. Your family will love you forever. Pinky promise.
And that completes your Wednesday. The weekend is coming soon, I promise. 🙂

Gayle @ Pumpkin 'N Spice says
This looks like the ultimate BLT, Sarah! Love that you added egg salad in! I always forget about making BLTs, yet everytime I do, I wonder why I don’t have them more often. And Wednesdays definitely call for EXTRA bacon, love it!
Sarah says
Thanks, Gayle! Seriously, it may sound weird to some people, but egg salad + BLT is the tastiest combo ever!
Cailee says
Wow!! These look amazing!! I love that you added eggs!!! I’m an egg lover and eat them just about every other day for brekkie! Yummy, filling and oh-so healthy!! What’s not to love about eggs?!
Sarah says
Thanks, Cailee!

Whoa! Love this! I really like egg salad, but I haven’t had it in ages. This looks like such a good way to switch up lunch!
Sarah says
Thanks, Annie! You should totally re-introduce yourself with egg salad by trying these sammies! 😉
Rachael | Spache the Spatula says
Yum! This looks so simple and delicious! And can I just say… as a celery loather, THANK YOU for keeping your egg salad celery-free! 😛 (P.S. I’m totally obsessed with BLT’s too!)
Sarah says
Hahaha! I normally don’t have a problem with celery, but I WILL draw the line at having it in my egg salad. Yechh! LOL. Thanks, Rachael! 🙂
Lindsey @ American Heritage Cooking says

This is a crazy thick sandwich! And I love that there is egg salad thrown into the mix. Extra protein and extra staying power.

Kelly // The Pretty Bee: Cooking & Creating says
This really looks delicious! Bacon and eggs – what a sandwich!
Kathy @ Olives & Garlic says
This is one awesome egg BLT. Smart idea to turn the egg sandwich into a BLT. I love both equally, so combining them is a great idea.
Sarah says
Thanks, Kathy!
Allison says
I absolutely adore new flavour switch-ups for classic sandwiches. Sometimes, only a sandwich will hit the spot for lunch and this looks totally satisfying! Love the lunch roundup too. Mmm.
Sarah says
Thanks, Allison! Sometimes sandwiches just need a fun little shake-up right?! 😀
Christin@SpicySouthernKitchen says
Oh wow! Love that you combined egg salad and a BLT! If I’m eating a peanut butter or turkey sandwich, I love wheat bread. For BLTs and grilled cheese, I love white bread.
Cindy @ Pick Fresh Foods says
Talk about an amazing BLT! This one sounds delicious! You’ve combined two delicious foods into one fabulous sandwich!
Sarah says
Thanks, Cindy! It’s a match made in sandwich heaven for sure!
Isadora says
I could just tell that that bread was delicious homemade bread as soon as I looked at it! Unfortunately I eat gluten free bread and each slice is like the size of a penny. Yet another reason why I need to start making my own! I haven’t eaten egg salad in sooo long, but you are reminding me why I love it so much and really how could anything be bad with bacon on it?!!
Sarah says
You have SO got to try your hand at homemade bread, Izzy! It makes sandwiches 1000x tastier! 😉
Kristi @ Inspiration Kitchen says
These sammies are amazing! I am loving the looks of that bacon!!! And when I reach for bread, I usually go for rye or dill bread. Two of my favorites. But I’m a huge homemade bread fan too – so I know that can make or break a sandwich!! These look so yum!
Sarah says
Thanks, Kristi! Rye bread is one of my favorites too! 🙂
Kelsey Bang says
oh this looks so dang tasty! I love a good sandwich! Ill have to try this out! Thanks for sharing!
Sarah says
Please let me know what you think of these sandwiches, Kelsey! 🙂
