Instructions:

After trying this savory sandwich, you may never want a traditional bacon B.L.T. again. Serve with a tossed salad or a cup of Asparagus Soup for lunch or supper. Cook all ingredients except buns, tomato and lettuce in 2-quart saucepan over medium heat 6 to 8 minutes, stirring occasionally, until onion is tender. Place in blender or food processor. Cover and blend until chunky. Cover and refrigerate 4 hours. Spoon bean mixture on bottom half of buns. Top with tomato, lettuce and remaining bun halves. 6 servings
