BLT Wraps

August is here in a flash, and back to school is on the horizon… swimming pools just have a few more days left, and we are hanging on to the laid-back schedule and bright hot pink sunsets.

I love the fresh tomatoes this time of year – those picked straight from the vine don’t last more than a few quick seconds before they’re gone.  The kids really love the picking.  We keep checking…our tomatoes are still green; however, we’ve tried some that others have shared with us, and they are deliciously perfect.

We just love BLTs.  Sometimes I fry and egg and put on top of the sandwich.  On other occasions, I’ll chop up fresh basil and add it into the mayonnaise.  I recently realized we were all out of bread, so we made a new version using the lettuce leaves.  I added some chicken and avocado to make it a little more filling – then drizzled some “homemade” Ranch dressing on top (by homemade I mean buying the dry packet of Ranch and adding mayonnaise and milk) ;).  The kids really thought they were fun.  No one complains when we have bacon, either!
