Bacon and Avacado Sandwich

Bacon & Guacamole Sammies

Nice healthy little appetizer for a friends get together or party.

The ingredients:

  • 4 strips of thick-cut pastured bacon
  • Guacamole

It’s ridiculously easy to cook bacon in the microwave oven. (Clean-up is simple, too.) Just wrap a few slices between some sheets of paper towel, stick it all on a microwave-safe plate, and nuke away. I set my microwave at 70% power and zapped the bacon for about two-and-a-half minutes. If you find that your bacon’s not yet crisp, just nuke it a bit longer.  (If you don’t use a microwave, use this method to bake your bacon in the oven.)

The filling for these “sandwiches”? Chunky homemade guacamole.  If you’re pressed for time, simply mash up the flesh of half an avocado, and cut up the other half into half-inch cubes. Then mix both halves together in a bowl to get a nice blend of chunky ‘n creamy. Flavor it with a squirt or two of lime juice and a generous pinch of Kosher salt.

Done and done!
