Simply Savoury Brunch Sandwiches

The Waffle BLT Combines Breakfast and Lunch into One Yummy Brunch

— February 14, 2013 — Lifestyle
When it comes to the best way to have brunch, the waffle BLT gives all others a run for their money. Brunch is usually reserved for light sandwiches and eggs Benedict, but the waffle BLT looks to create a true combination of breakfast and lunch into one savoury sandwich that will likely provide one yummy experience.

To create it at home, it only really requires that the traditional bread in a BLT sandwich be replaced with waffles. Perhaps throw in a side of maple syrup and bacon for an over-the-top taste experience.

I'm a sandwich lover through-and-through, which why this recipe comes as one of my favorites. Savoury creations are the best way to experience both sides of the taste spectrum and the waffle BLT seems to border the line pretty well.
Trend Themes
1. Brunch Sandwich Innovation - The trend of combining breakfast and lunch into a single, savory sandwich presents an opportunity for the food industry to create new and inventive variations on classic brunch options.
2. Alternative Bread Usage - Swapping out traditional bread products for alternative ingredients such as waffles opens up new possibilities for innovative sandwich combinations.
3. The Sweet-savory Mix - The trend of combining sweet and savory flavors in meals such as the waffle BLT presents an opportunity for experimentation with contrasting flavor profiles.
Industry Implications
1. Fast Casual Restaurants - Fast casual restaurants that specialize in brunch fare can capitalize on the growing trend of unique sandwich innovations, like the waffle BLT, to distinguish themselves from competition.
2. Food Truck Industry - The food truck industry can use the waffle BLT as inspiration to create their own unique, on-the-go variations of the sandwich and capitalize on consumer interest in savory and sweet mixes.
3. Breakfast Product Manufacturers - Breakfast product manufacturers can innovate by developing new and alternative bread options—like waffles for sandwiches—that offer a unique twist on classic breakfast ingredients and tap into the growing brunch scene.
