Blat With Lemon Basil Vegenaise

For a simple summer meal, this incredible sandwich delivers! I was worried about swapping out regular bacon for vegan bacon, but thought it would be worth a try. Definitely a difference, but if you're like me and prefer to give up a bit of flavor for the added benefit of meat-free mealtiming it, then make the swap. Otherwise, go with real bacon or go home. I replaced the traditional "BLAT" lettuce with sprouts and didn't feel even a little bit bad, but if you'd rather stick with a crisp slice of lettuce, by all means, rock it!
