Equipment

1 baking sheet

Ingredients

10 grape tomatoes
2 whole leaves of romaine lettuce
4 slices of thick sliced bacon
1/2 teaspoon of garlic powder
½ cup of mayonnaise
5 slices of brioche loaf
1 tablespoon of melted butter

Instructions

Slice tomatoes longways and store in the fridge until you are ready to assemble.
Cook bacon. Try to keep as flat as possible.
After bacon is cooked and cooled, slice into 1 ½ to 2 inch pieces.
Combine garlic powder and mayonnaise. Next, cut the romaine into 2 inch by 2 inch pieces. Set both in the fridge until you are ready to assemble.
Cut the crusts off of the slices of brioche loaf. Slice the pieces into quarters. Refer to the video if needed.
Brush the quartered pieces with the melted butter and bake for 5-6 minutes at 375 degrees F or until golden brown. After baking, set aside to cool.
To assemble, spread about a ½ teaspoon to a teaspoon of garlic mayonnaise on a piece of toasted brioche. Next place a piece of bacon, lettuce and tomato then repeat until done.

Notes

Assembling the blt appetizers is made easier by using a ketchup squeeze bottle from your local dollar store, especially if you are making a large quantity. Placing a dot of garlic mayo between layers will help keep the tomato and lettuce from falling off.
