BLT with Basil Mayonnaise - If you grow tomatoes, you end up with a "boat load". My husband decided that we would have BLTs for dinner, which is a very good idea. My daughter took a bite and said "Whoa, that's bomb!" I am assuming that "bomb" is a good thing. I think it was by the look on her face! FYI - Adding slices of avocado wouldn't be a bad idea. Then it would be called a BLAT with Basil Mayonnaise.

‘The bomb’ is a very good thing. (‘Bomb’ itself is usually a verb and it means … not so great.) We have a boatload of ‘maters as well as a nicely producing Basil plant. My old lady is a huge BLT fanatic. Love the mayo recipe! Gonna do it! (Yes, I said ‘old lady.’)
