I recently went to a friend’s house and she served up these divine BLT style sandwiches!  I swear I could’ve eaten about 30 of them!

It’s a gourmet-style BLT: a perfect blend of flavors!

      • Tangy tomatoes
      • Peppery arugula
      • Smooth creamy avocado
      • Salty pancetta

….the perfect mix!!

Use any size rolls to make this into a great lunch or an slider buns for a perfect appetizer!
