California Recipe

Cook the bacon slices until crispy in a skillet over medium heat. This should take about 7-10 minutes. Once cooked, place the bacon on a paper towel to drain excess grease.

While the bacon is cooking, cut the avocados in half, remove the pit, and scoop the flesh into a bowl. Mash the avocado with a fork and add lemon juice, salt, and pepper to taste. Mix well.

Dice the large tomato into small cubes and set aside.

In a separate bowl, soften the cream cheese by mixing it with a fork or spoon until it reaches a spreadable consistency.

Layering Ingredients

Spread a generous layer of cream cheese onto your choice of bread or bagel (if desired).

Next, spread a layer of the mashed avocado over the cream cheese.

Add the crispy bacon slices on top of the avocado.

Finally, sprinkle the diced tomato over the bacon. Add any fresh herbs if using.

Season with additional salt and pepper if desired.
