Main Ingredients

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Cook the Bacon

    In a skillet over medium heat, cook the bacon slices until crispy, about 5-7 minutes. Flip halfway through for even cooking.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Avocado

    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, then season with salt and pepper to taste.

  3. 3

    Prep the Tomato and Lettuce

    Slice the tomato into even slices and wash the lettuce leaves. Pat dry and set aside.

Assembly

  1. 4

    Grill the Sourdough

    In a separate skillet or grill pan, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the sourdough slices and grill until golden brown on both sides, about 2-3 minutes per side.

  2. 5

    Assemble the Sandwich

    On two slices of grilled sourdough, spread a generous layer of the smashed avocado. Top with crispy bacon, sliced tomato, and lettuce. Add the remaining slices of sourdough on top to form a sandwich.
