Ingredients

• 2 units Whole wheat bap rolls
• 4 slices Turkey bacon
• 1 teaspoon Olive oil
• 1 cup Arugula
• 1 medium Tomato
• 0.5 medium Avocado
• 1 teaspoon Lemon juice
• 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
• 0.125 teaspoon Salt

Directions

Step 1

Preheat a non-stick skillet on medium heat.

Step 2

Add the olive oil to the skillet, then add the turkey bacon slices and cook for 3-4 minutes on each side until crispy.

Step 3

While the bacon is cooking, slice the tomato into thin slices and set aside.

Step 4

Cut the avocado in half, remove the pit, and scoop the flesh into a bowl. Mash it with a fork and mix in the lemon juice, black pepper, and salt.

Step 5

Once the bacon is done, remove it from the skillet and set it on a plate lined with paper towels to drain any excess oil.

Step 6

Cut the whole wheat bap rolls in half and toast them lightly in the same skillet to absorb some flavors left from the bacon.

Step 7

Spread half of the mashed avocado evenly on the bottom half of each bap roll.

Step 8

Layer the arugula, tomato slices, and two slices of turkey bacon on top of the avocado on each roll.

Step 9

Place the top half of the bap roll over the filled bottom half and serve immediately.
