Steps

  • Step 1

    Slice the tomato and sprinkle the slices lightly with salt to bring out the tomato's flavor. Set aside.

    Ingredients
    • 1  heirloom tomato, sliced

    •  kosher salt

  • Step 2

    Coarsely mash the avocado with the lime juice and a pinch of salt. Set aside.

    Ingredients
    • 1  small or 1/2 large ripe avocado

    • 1 Teaspoon fresh lime juice

  • Step 3

    Preheat 1 zone on the flat top on medium heat for 8 to 10 minutes. Line a plate with paper towel.

  • Step 4

    Lay the bacon on the hot surface and cook until browned on one side, 4 to 5 minutes. Flip and cook until crisp, 1 to 2 minutes more. Transfer the bacon to the paper towel-lined plate. Scrape away most of the bacon fat, leaving the surface lightly coated.

    Ingredients
    • 6  slices thick cut bacon

  • Step 5

    Lightly spread some mayonnaise over one side of each bread slice. Arrange the bread, mayo-side down on the hot surface. Cook until nicely browned and then flip to toast the other side.

    Ingredients
    • 4  slices thick, sturdy white sandwich bread

    •  Mayonnaise for bread

  • Step 6

    To assemble the sandwiches, top the mayo-side of two of the bread slices with the mashed avocado. Top with the lettuce, tomato, bacon, and turkey. Top with the remaining bread, mayo side down. Press lightly with a burger press or similar to slightly compress and make easier to eat. Slice the sandwiches in half and serve. Enjoy!
