Equipment

  • Baking Sheet
  • Aluminum Foil

Ingredients
  

  • 2 slices Sourdough Bread
  • 2 tbsp Mayonnaise
  • 4 slices Bacon
  • 2 slices Swiss Cheese
  • 2 leaves Red Leaf Lettuce
  • 1 large Avocado
  • 1 large Tomato

Instructions
 

Get Ready

  • Pre-heat oven to 395°F.
  • Toast sourdough slices to desired doneness.

Start Cooking

  • Lay your bacon out on a baking sheet lined with aluminum foil in a single layer. Place the baking sheet into a preheated oven for 15 minutes or until cooked to your preference.
  • While the bacon is cooking, spread a thin layer of mayonnaise on one side of each slice of sourdough toast.
  • Mash your avocado and season with salt, to taste.
  • Add slices of swiss cheese to one slice of sourdough bread.
  • Spread avocado generously over the slice of toast without cheese on it. Spread any extra avocado over the swiss cheese.
  • Building on top of the slice of sourdough with only avocado on it (and no cheese) for the rest of this recipe, slice your tomato into ¼" slices and lay them onto this half of the sandwich.
  • When the bacon is done, lay the bacon slices onto a paper towel to drain excess fat then while still warm arrange on top of the tomato slices.
  • Top the tomato and bacon with whole leaves of red leaf lettuce, with the spine of the lettuce facing up.
  • Take the sourdough slice with the cheese and match it up with the slice we have been building on top of. Cut your sandwich in half with a bread knife and serve.
