Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Cook the Bacon

    In a skillet over medium heat, cook the bacon slices until crispy, about 5-7 minutes. Flip them halfway through for even cooking. Once done, transfer to a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess grease.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Avocado

    Cut the ripe avocado in half and remove the pit. Scoop the flesh into a bowl. Mash the avocado with a fork until it's smooth but still has some texture. Season with salt and black pepper to taste.

  3. 3

    Slice the Tomato

    While the bacon cooks, wash the tomato and slice it into even rounds.

  4. 4

    Wash the Lettuce

    Rinse the lettuce leaves under cold water and pat them dry with a paper towel.

  5. 5

    Toast the Bread (Optional)

    If desired, toast the bread slices until golden brown. This adds a nice crunch to the sandwich.

Assembly

  1. 6

    Spread the Mayonnaise

    Spread 1 tablespoon of mayonnaise on one side of each slice of bread.

  2. 7

    Layer the Ingredients

    On one slice of bread (mayonnaise side up), layer the mashed avocado, crispy bacon, lettuce, and tomato slices.

  3. 8

    Complete the Sandwich

    Top with the second slice of bread, mayonnaise side down. Press gently to secure the layers.

  4. 9

    Slice and Serve

    Cut the sandwich in half diagonally and serve immediately. Enjoy your delicious Avocado BLT!
