Recipe: BBB

Also known as
"Bron's Best B.L.T" (I love acronyms that have acronyms in them!!)

What you need for two:
  • Woolworths Garlic and Olive Oil Sourdough bread - seriously imperative. If you don't, I GUESS you could use sourdough bread and spread garlic butter on it.
  • 3-4 pieces of rindless bacon (I use middle bacon then trim it)
  • Lettuce (anything which is crisp and vibrant and will do), washed and pulled apart into sandwhich sized pieces
  • 1 juicy tomato, cut into approx 6 thick slices
  • 1 avocado, halved, seed removed and mashed
  • Salt and pepper to taste
Optional
  • Aioli - amazement, making the above a BLAAT
  • Caramelised onions - BLOAT?
1.  Grill or pan-fry the bacon on high heat until crispy.


2.  Cut the loaf of bread on an angle so you get decent sized pieces, not straight like normal bread. Grill on a sandwhich press until light brown char marks appear, or you can't stand the smell any longer (its so damn good)


4.  Slather on the avocado then salt, aioli and onion (if using). On the other slice place your lettuce, tomato and then bacon.

5.  Place the avo'd side onto the top of the rest of your sammo and DIG IN.

6.  Die happy (eventually)



I dont know what it is about bacon + avo but whatever it is its AMAZEBALLS

And you know what, its not an awfully unehalthy recipe. You could go the rye sourdough etc and just add garlic to your bacon, shortcut at that and skimp on the avo (I usually only put about 1/4 of one on and the boy gets 3/4 on his bigger sanga)


The bread really does make it, and I've heard they might discontinue it so I am going to buy as many loafs as I can and freeze them.
