TURKEY BACON AND AVOCADO GRILLED CHEESE

TURKEY BACON AND AVOCADO GRILLED CHEESE

I have a thing for good sandwiches.  They need to have lots of texture and lots of flavor.  This Turkey Bacon Avocado Grilled Cheese hit it out of the park!!  It’s a little like a BLAT (Bacon Lettuce Avocado Tomato) meets grilled cheese.

Everyone knows how to make a grilled cheese sandwich…. I know, but let me tell you, this sandwich is not your average grilled cheese sandwich. It is anything but. The flavors from the basil, turkey bacon, avocado and tomato mingle together with the melty mozzarella and crusty toasted buttered bread to make this sandwich extra special.

This has been one of those sandwiches that I like to just keep in my arsenal of quick, easy and absolutely delicious go-to recipes.  Great for summer, because you don’t have to heat up the house, yet you still have a hot meal to put on the table. My whole family loves it

INGREDIENTS:

4 slices hearty artisan bread
4-6 slices Butterball turkey bacon, cooked
4 sliced mozzarella (about 4-6 ounces)
1 avocado, sliced
 1 ripe tomato, sliced
basil leaves
1-2 tablespoons of butter

DIRECTIONS:

Butter one side of each of the slices of bread.
Pace 2 sliced of bread, butter side down in skillet or griddle.  Layer with mozzarella, turkey bacon, avocado, tomato and basil. Top with remaining slices of buttered bread (butter side up).
Heat over medium high heat and top sandwiches with the remaining slices of bread, butter-side-up and cook until golden and cheese begins to melt - about 4 minutes (you can cover with a lid to speed up the melting process.)
Carefully flip sandwich, reduce heat to medium and cook a few more minutes until cheese has melted and bread is golden brown.
Slice in halve and serve.
