Welcome!

Welcome to B.L.T. Foodies!  Our blog is all about a dietitian, an engineer and a cute blonde (dog) named Lilly. :-)  We love Greenville, SC and all it has to offer -  from bountiful downtown dining to the rolling Appalachian Mountains in our backyard, there is a lot to keep us busy.. and the beach isn't far either!   In the blog, we will share with you our adventures together, both indoors and outdoors.  We hope that you enjoy following us!

Sincerely,

Brittany, Lilly and Trevor a.k.a. B.L.T. Foodies

B.L.T. at Table Rock in SC

B.L.A.T

We felt it was only appropriate to start our blog with a Bacon Lettuce Tomato Sandwich in honor of our blog's name.  However, we put a little monounsaturated fat spin on it by making it a Bacon, Lettuce, Avocado and Tomato sandwich (with spinach!).

Out version of a B.L.A.T

Start with a ripe avocado and sliced tomato

We used turkey bacon to cut back on the saturated fat 

Add a little soup for a side...

And combine!
