Today I’m putting a twist on the classic BLT by making a CLT—Chicken, Lettuce & Tomato sandwich—using super fresh Maltese ftira bread. I layered it with creamy cream cheese, crunchy spring onion, crisp lettuce, juicy tomatoes, and delicious frozen chicken bites that turned out so good.
We packed it up and took it to the park for a relaxed picnic AND stumbled upon a loquat tree full of ripe fruit . A perfect unexpected treat to end the meal!
