1
Bake the Bacon
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Place the thick-cut bacon slices on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake for 15-20 minutes or until crispy. Remove from the oven and let drain on paper towels.
2
Prepare the Vegetables
While the bacon is baking, wash and dry the lettuce leaves. Slice the avocado in half, remove the pit, and scoop out the flesh. Slice the avocado into thin pieces. Dice the tomato.
3
Make Garlic Aioli
In a small bowl, mix together 1/2 cup mayonnaise, 2 minced garlic cloves, 1 tablespoon lemon juice, and salt and pepper to taste. Stir until well combined.
4
Assemble the Sandwich
Toast the nine-grain bread slices if desired. Spread a generous amount of garlic aioli on one side of each slice of bread. Layer with lettuce, bacon, avocado, tomato, and cheddar jack cheese. Top with another slice of bread, aioli side down.
5
Serve
Cut the sandwiches in half and serve immediately. Enjoy your Bacon Lover's BLT&A!
