Breakfast
Avocado Bacon Sandwiches
Creamy avocado pairs with crispy bacon for a rich, satisfying sandwich layered on toasted bread with fresh lettuce and tomato. A simple yet indulgent choice for breakfast, brunch, or a quick lunch.
Ingredients:
- 1/4 pound bacon slices, chopped 1 ripe avocado
- 1/2 teaspoon lemon juice salt and pepper, to taste
- 3 tablespoons butter, softened
- 4 large slices whole wheat bread
- lemon twist and parsley sprig, to garnish
Directions:
- Fry bacon until crisp. Drain on paper towels.
- Peel avocado, taking care not to remove bright green flesh just inside the skin. Cut in half and remove seed. In a bowl, mash avocado, then stir in lemon juice, salt and pepper.
- Butter two slices of bread. Spread avocado mixture on buttered sides of 2 bread slices. Scatter bacon over avocado. Cover with remaining bread slices, buttered sides down, and press together.
- Cut off bread crusts. Cut each sandwich into 4 triangles. Arrange on a serving plate, garnished with a lemon twist and parsley sprig.
