2 slices thick slices hearty white bread

2-4 pieces green leaf lettuce

步驟

Start by frying your bacon. I highly recommend baking your bacon! The clean up is so much easier. Click here to learn How to Bake Bacon. When the bacon is crispy (but not TOO crispy!) take it out and remove to a paper-towel lined plate. Tear each slice of bacon in half so there are 8 strips. Keep warm until ready to assemble.

While the bacon is cooking, prepare your bread. Spread both sides of your bread with butter. Place in a skillet over medium heat and toast lightly, it will only take a couple minutes. Flip each piece of bread and toast the other side. Don't overdo it! You only want a light browning. (Alternatively, you can toast your bread lightly in a toaster and then spread each side with butter). Set aside.

Wash and dry your green leaf lettuce. Slice your tomato into slices that are about 3/8 inch thick. Place the tomatoes on a paper towel-lined plate so absorb some of the water.

Cut your avocado in half, then slice one half into strips.

Assemble your sandwich: Spread about 1 and 1/2 tablespoons mayonnaise* on your toasted bread. Top with lettuce fronds. Next add 2 tomato slices that have been sitting on a paper towel for at least a few minutes. Sprinkle your tomatoes with salt and pepper.

Add all the bacon. You should have 8 half-strips of bacon. Pile 'em on!

Top the bacon with avocado strips. Sprinkle with a little more salt and pepper, if you like.

Spread the other piece of toasted bread with mayonnaise or whatever sauce you are using. Top the sandwich and gently press down. Use a sharp serrated knife to slice the sandwich in half. This recipe makes 1 amazing sandwich. Eat right away!
