As I get closer to having baby Stella and my belly grows bigger and bigger, I am trying to be more aware of what I am eating. Lt me tell you it’s not easy for a foodie like me to cut out sweets and carbs but it sure does help when you are big and preggers! Sandwiches are a fave in my house so I came up with this BLT Lettucewich which is simply a BLT sub sandwiched between two pieces of crisp lettuce instead of bread. Surprisingly, I didn’t even miss the bread! It was juicy and savory and filled me up and it was Low Carb too! I jazzed mine up by adding sliced avocado and spicy Sriracha mayo and served it with a side of roasted veggies.

Good quality thick cut bacon is key for a tasty BLT!
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Place the bacon strips on a rack set on top of an aluminum foil lined baking sheet.
Bake for about 20 minutes or until crisp. 
Remove from oven and let cool.
Wash four pieces of large Romaine lettuce leaves.
Mix together mayo and Sriracha in a small bowl.
 I do 2 parts mayo to one part Sriracha.
Spread generously onto lettuce leaves.
Peel and slice up your toppings. We used juicy tomato and ripe avocado.
 Onion slices are also delish!
Add your thick cut bacon to the lettuce.
Then add your tomato and avocado and salt and pepper.
Truth be told I am not a fan of tomatoes {except fried green tomatoes, of course!} so I just had lots of avocado with my bacon and lettuce. My BLA was just as tasty!
Add the top lettuce leaf and you have got yourself one tasty BLT Lettucewich!

Well, we made it 8 years with my wild child with no broken bones...until skate night last night. Stella has a small fracture on her finger and had to get a splint at the hospital today. But in true Stella fashion, it is not slowing her down! #wildchild #mamasgirl #brokenbone #bravegirl #wildone
