Nothing beats a good BLT, but a great sandwich is always made with great bread, so I have had a BLT or two that were just ok. Plus the thing about BLTs is that the tomato makes up a third of its core ingredients, and tomatoes can be pretty iffy in terms of quality. They are subject to seasonality, locations etc. Now there is this: The Avocado, Bacon & Cucumber sandwich.
I had open-faced ABCs last night watching TV. I smashed up a half of avocado in a bowl, squeezed a little lime juice, and added a few dashes of hot sauce and salt. I used small slices of thin-sliced, very good sour dough. I didn’t use or need mayo, putting the avo down first, then the bacon, then thin-sliced standard cucumbers.
I made an enclosed sandwich by finishing the bacon, using the thin-sliced sourdough, smashed avo and cucumber. Today, however, I did use a light amount of mayo on both pieces of bread and also spiked the sandwich with torn up pieces of pepperoncini. Great ABC!
