Bacon, Tomato and Avocado Sandwich
This simple open-faced bacon, tomato and avocado sandwich is easy to make and ready in no time. It is a good snack at any time of the day.
You can even set yourself up for the day when you have this for breakfast.
Bacon has always gone well with all the ingredients separately: tomato, avocado and eggs. They all complement each other perfectly in this dish.
If you are making a sandwich to go, you may want to use everything without the egg. Everything together in a closed-face sandwich.
That would work well also.
Avocados
I have always loved avocados. Because they have a certain texture and taste unlike anything else. In time I shall be putting a few avocado recipes on this blog.
Avocado goes so well in salads and other concoctions.
Guacamole is, of course, one of the famous things that is made with avocados, and is fantastic as part of Mexican meals with nachos and as a dip.
Bacon, Tomato and Avocado Sandwich
As a student, I once travelled in South Africa many years ago and remember buying an entire crate of avocados for next to nothing.
There must have been 40 avo’s in the box and I spent an hour eating as many as I could, together with my travel partner Paul.
Sitting amongst the spoil tips from the mines in Kimberley, and eating these delicious fruits with our bare hands. It never put me off.
One of my favourite avocado recipes is simply with some balsamic vinegar and olive oil dressing and a pinch of salt. Delicious.
Anyhow, this recipe combines some other flavours and is a healthier addition to my snack recipes.
