B.L.A.T.

Yup, it is true.  I dislike tomatoes.  They are mushy, smooshy, and have a very odd flavor.  But, I do love ketchup, spaghetti sauce, and even caprese salad if the tomato is extremely firm. I also love growing tomatoes but only because they are super easy.

Get a grape or cherry tomato near me and I will run away.

But when I saw this massive softball sized heirloom tomato at the market I couldn't resist. I had to have it.  Bonus - it was also very firm!  I also purchased applewood smoked bacon, a perfect avocado and fresh sourdough bread.  The makings of a perfect BLAT (bacon, lettuce, avocado, tomato).
And the best side for a hearty BLAT?  Sweet potato fries of course!
