Who doesn’t love a BLT? There’s something about that combo that is just so summery. However, unless you put mounds of bacon on your sandwich, you might be left feeling a little hungry after eating one. Sometimes they call for something a little more substantial to be added on! That’s why we love this Salmon and Avocado BLT Sandwich! Grilled salmon makes the sandwich more filling/interesting, while avocado adds another fresh summer element. This sandwich uses Weber® Roasted Garlic & Herb Seasoning on the salmon as well as in the mayo, but you can feel free to try any of your favorite Weber® seasonings!
