1
Cook the Bacon
In a skillet over medium heat, cook the applewood smoked bacon until crispy, about 5-7 minutes. Remove from the skillet and place on a paper towel to absorb excess grease.
2
Prepare the Vegetables
While the bacon is cooking, slice the avocado, sweet cucumber, tomato, and fresh jalapeno. For the jalapeno, you may choose to remove the seeds if you prefer less heat.
3
Prepare the Rolls
Slice the French rolls in half lengthwise, ready for filling.

4
Assemble the Sandwich
Spread 1 tablespoon of citrus aioli on the inside of each French roll. Layer the avocado slices, followed by the sweet cucumber, tomato, jalapeno, and bacon slices. Top with provolone cheese.
5
Final Touch
Spread the remaining tablespoon of citrus aioli on the top half of the roll, then close the sandwich.

6
Serve
Cut the sandwich in half if desired and serve immediately, enjoying the freshness of the ingredients.
