1
Cook the Bacon
In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the bacon slices until crispy, about 6-8 minutes. Turn occasionally for even cooking. Once done, transfer the bacon to a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess grease.
2
Prepare the Vegetables
While the bacon is cooking, wash the lettuce and pat it dry. Slice the tomato into thin rounds and set aside. Cut the avocado in half, remove the pit, and scoop the flesh out with a spoon. Slice the avocado into thin slices.

3
Toast the Bread
Spread butter on one side of each slice of sourdough bread. Heat a skillet over medium heat and place the slices butter-side down. Toast until golden brown, about 3-4 minutes. Flip and toast the other side for an additional 2-3 minutes.
4
Build the Sandwich
On one slice of toasted sourdough, layer the crispy bacon, followed by the lettuce, tomato slices, and avocado slices. Sprinkle with salt and pepper to taste. Top with another slice of toasted sourdough.
