BLT Soup

Healthy Fact of the Day

Use turkey bacon and light cream to cut fat, and add spinach or kale for extra vitamins. Serve with whole grain bread for a more balanced meal.

This BLT Soup takes the iconic sandwich and transforms it into a warm, comforting bowl of pure satisfaction. Crispy bacon brings smoky richness while sweet tomatoes and tender lettuce simmer in a creamy broth enhanced with garlic and onion for layers of flavor. It’s an inventive twist on a classic favorite that proves sometimes the best comfort food comes from reimagining what we already love.

If you love creative takes on classic flavors, you’ll also enjoy our Loaded Baked Potato Casserole for another comfort food transformation. For more hearty, bacon-forward dishes, try our Smoked Gouda Bacon Dip or Loaded Potato Soup—both deliver that same smoky, satisfying richness that makes this soup so irresistible.

    Tip of the Day

    “Always let your meat rest before slicing.”

    Whether you're roasting a chicken, grilling steak, or baking pork tenderloin, letting cooked meat rest for 5–10 minutes before slicing allows the juices to redistribute evenly. This simple step keeps your meat juicy and tender, ensuring every bite is flavorful and moist. Bonus: It gives you a moment to plate your sides or garnish for a perfect presentation!
