BLT TACOS
Without the bread muffling the crunch of bacon and crisp lettuce, BLT tacos are a lot more texturally exciting than the usual sandwich. Here, hot sauce-spiked mayonnaise adds spice; avocado adds creaminess; and chopping the tomatoes into a salsa with jalapeño, lime juice and cilantro makes everything juicy and bright. You can serve these for brunch, lunch or a light, fast dinner.

Steps:
- Heat oven to 400 degrees. Lay bacon in an even layer on a rimmed baking sheet, and bake until browned and crisp, 15 to 20 minutes. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate and let cool.
- While bacon is cooking, toss together tomatoes, jalapeño, cilantro, lime juice and a large pinch of salt in a medium bowl. Taste and add more lime juice and salt, if needed.
- In a small bowl, whisk together mayonnaise and hot sauce.
- Lay a clean kitchen towel in a medium bowl. Using the open flame from a stovetop gas burner (or in a skillet placed on an electric burner), warm and lightly char tortillas, 30 seconds to 1 minute per side. Transfer warmed tortillas to a towel-lined bowl, and cover with towel to keep warm while you finish remaining tortillas.
- Serve, letting people make their own tacos by layering bacon, salsa, lettuce, spicy mayonnaise and avocado, if using, on tortillas. Top with more hot sauce, if desired.

9 MEXICAN TORTAS AND SANDWICHES TO CREATE AT HOME
From bhg.com
Occupation Food WriterEstimated Reading Time 4 minsAuthor Kristy AlpertPublished Feb 19, 2016
- Queso Fundido Torta. This hot and cheesy torta recipe gets a slightly smoky boost from roasted poblano peppers. The best time to start sautéing the chorizo is while the peppers are roasting in the oven, so everything comes out hot at the same time.
- Cemita Poblana (Puebla-Style Sandwich) This filling sandwich is a staple in the Mexican state of Puebla, where it earns its name from the signature sesame seed encrusted rolls it uses (i.e., cemitas).
- Pressure Cooker Chicken Salsa Tortas. These pressure cooker tortas are as easy as they are delicious. This chicken torta recipe only calls for seven ingredients—eight if you include the optional queso fresco—including a jar of salsa and six bolillo rolls.
- Molletes. A mollete is an open-faced sandwich popular throughout northern Mexico. Just like our version, this Mexican sandwich recipe is served open face, loaded with black beans, cheese, and fresh pico de gallo.
- Torta Ahogada (Drowned Sandwich) A true tortas ahogadas recipe is dipped (ahogadas means "drowned" in English) in a red chile sauce before serving.
- Cola-Chipotle Pork Tortas. In authentic Mexican torta recipes, Mexican cola is often the secret ingredient for infusing the pork with a burst of pure cane sugar.
- Torta de Albondigas (Mexican Meatball Subs) When it comes to these Mexican sandwiches, we're not sure what we like better—the garlicky, cumin-spiced meatballs or the refreshing cabbage slaw.
- Tortas Hamburguesas (Mexican Hamburgers) Take your burgers for a south-of-the-border trip with a few key ingredients. Cilantro, lime juice, and onion mixed into the ground beef add bites of Southwestern flavor to this tortas hamburguesas recipe.
- Mexican-Style Pot Roast Sandwiches. Bold flavors like pickled red onions, cumin, and cilantro add a Mexican-style twist to these slow cooker pulled pork sandwiches.
