The BLT with Avocado, also known as the California BLT, has a rich history dating back to the 1970s. This iconic sandwich originated in California, where chefs sought to add a creamy and flavorful twist to the classic BLT. The addition of ripe avocado brought a new dimension to the beloved sandwich, creating a perfect balance of crispy bacon, juicy tomatoes, fresh lettuce, and creamy avocado. Today, the best versions of this dish can be found in California, particularly in trendy cafes and beachside eateries. The key to a perfect BLT with Avocado lies in using high-quality, ripe avocados and crispy, thick-cut bacon. Some alternative methods include adding a spread of avocado mash or using guacamole for an extra kick of flavor.
