Ingredients
- 4 slices Turkey bacon
- 4 slices Whole-grain bread
- 4 tablespoons Hummus
- 1 medium Avocado
- 1 cup Spinach leaves
- 0.5 medium Cucumber
- 1 medium Tomato
- 1 teaspoon Olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Lemon juice
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
Directions
Step 1
Heat a skillet over medium heat and cook the turkey bacon slices until crispy, approximately 3-5 minutes per side. Remove from the skillet and set aside on a plate lined with paper towels to absorb excess grease.
Step 2
While the turkey bacon is cooking, lightly toast the whole-grain bread slices in a toaster or on a skillet until golden brown.
Step 3
Cut the avocado in half, remove the pit, and scoop the flesh into a small bowl. Mash the avocado with a fork until smooth, then stir in the olive oil, lemon juice, salt, and black pepper to make a simple guacamole spread.
Step 4
Slice the cucumber and tomato into thin rounds.
Step 5
Spread 1 tablespoon of hummus on each slice of toasted bread.
Step 6
On two of the bread slices, layer the spinach leaves, cucumber slices, tomato slices, cooked turkey bacon, and finally a generous spread of the mashed avocado.
Step 7
Top each assembled sandwich with the remaining bread slices, hummus side down.
Step 8
Cut the sandwiches in half if desired, and serve immediately. Enjoy your wholesome Mediterranean Diet Turkey Bacon Sandwich!
