Ingredients
Method
Techniques
  • thick-cut bacon
  • bib lettuce or Boston lettuce
  • sliced tomatoes
  • avocado
  • lemon juice
  • fresh parsley
  • salt
  • pepper
  • Italian bread
Heat the oven to 425.
  • extra virgin olive oil
Drizzle the bread slices with a little olive oil.
Lay the bacon on a broiler pan, or any pan with a rack over it, so the fat drips away and the bacon cooks evenly.
Put the bacon and bread in the oven together: the bread toasts about 10 minutes, the bacon cooks 10 to 15 minutes.
Halve and pit the avocado; put one half in a bowl with lemon juice, a pinch of salt and parsley and mash with a fork.
Slice the other half of the avocado.
Spread the mashed avocado over two slices of bread, add tomato slices, season with salt and pepper and a tiny drizzle of olive oil, then top with bacon.
  • ½ tsp olive oil
Lay the sliced avocado on the other two slices, season with salt, top with lettuce and close the sandwiches.
