Ingredients
- 1 Whole-grain bagel
- 2 slices Low-sodium turkey bacon
- 1 small Ripe tomato
- 2 leaves Romaine lettuce
- 0.5 Avocado
- 0.5 teaspoon Lemon juice
- 0.125 teaspoon Freshly ground black pepper
- 0.125 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 0 Olive oil cooking spray
Directions
Step 1
Preheat a skillet over medium heat and lightly coat with olive oil cooking spray.
Step 2
Cook the low-sodium turkey bacon in the skillet until crisp, about 5 minutes, turning halfway through. Once cooked, set aside on a paper towel to drain any excess oil.
Step 3
While the bacon is cooking, slice the whole-grain bagel in half and lightly toast it in a toaster or oven to your liking.
Step 4
Slice the tomato into 1/4-inch thick rounds and rinse the romaine lettuce leaves under cold water, patting them dry with a paper towel.
Step 5
In a small bowl, mash the avocado with a fork. Stir in the lemon juice, freshly ground black pepper, and garlic powder to create a simple avocado spread.
Step 6
Spread a thin layer of avocado mixture onto each half of the toasted bagel.
Step 7
Layer the bottom half of the bagel with the cooked turkey bacon slices, followed by the tomato slices, and then the romaine lettuce leaves.
Step 8
Place the top half of the bagel onto the lettuce, pressing down gently to secure the sandwich.
Step 9
Cut the Low Sodium BLT Bagel in half for easy eating and enjoy!
