I first posted this idea a couple of years ago and then promptly forgot about it. However, summer is often too busy (or hot) to cook, so recently I dug into my files for a good sandwich idea and re-discovered this treat.You will not find this delight on any health food menu and you won't find it on your weight watchers plan, but man oh man, is it tasty. Crisp fried bacon, on top of a thick layer of guacamole and topped with lettuce and tomatoes. You just have to say yes to a good sandwich some times!
The guacamole for these sandwiches is excellent:3 avocadosjuice of 1 lime1 teaspoon salt½ cup sweet (or red) onion diced small3 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro2 Roma tomatoes diced small 1 teaspoon minced garlicpinch of ground cayenne pepper (optional)Mash the avocado with the lime and salt and then stir in the rest of the ingredients. You can use this right away, but the flavors blend better if it sits in the fridge for an hour or so.Spread a nice thick layer of guacamole on your toasted bread, then top with crisp bacon, tomato slices and favorite lettuce. Eat your sandwich in the shade with a tall glass of sweet ice tea !!SEE VIDEO TUTORIAL >>
