Ingredients
- 4 slices Low Sodium Turkey Bacon
- 4 slices Whole Grain Bread
- 1 medium Tomato
- 1 large Avocado
- 4 leaves Lettuce
- 2 tablespoons Low Sodium Mayonnaise
- 0.25 teaspoon Black Pepper
- 1 teaspoon Olive Oil
Directions
Step 1
Preheat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add 1 teaspoon of olive oil.
Step 2
Cook the low sodium turkey bacon slices in the skillet for about 3-4 minutes on each side or until crispy. Remove from heat and set aside on paper towels to drain any excess oil.
Step 3
While the bacon is cooking, cut the avocado in half, remove the pit, and scoop the flesh into a bowl. Mash the avocado using a fork until smooth.
Step 4
Add the low sodium mayonnaise and black pepper to the mashed avocado and mix until well combined to create an avocado spread.
Step 5
Slice the tomato into thin, even slices.
Step 6
Lightly toast the whole grain bread slices until they are golden brown.
Step 7
To assemble the sandwich, spread a portion of the avocado mixture onto one side of each bread slice.
Step 8
Layer two slices of turkey bacon, several tomato slices, and two lettuce leaves on top of the avocado spread on one slice of bread.
Step 9
Top with another slice of bread, avocado side down, to complete the sandwich. Repeat for the second sandwich.
Step 10
Cut the sandwiches in half and serve immediately.
