Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 slices grain-free bread (almond flour or cassava flour-based)
- 4 slices turkey bacon
- 0.5 whole avocado
- 2 slices red onion
- 2 slices tomato
- 2 large lettuce leaves
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 0.25 teaspoon sea salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 teaspoon coconut oil or avocado oil (for cooking)
Instructions
Heat a small skillet over medium heat and add 1 teaspoon of coconut oil or avocado oil.
Cook the turkey bacon slices in the skillet for 3-4 minutes per side or until crispy. Remove and set aside on a plate lined with paper towels.
While the bacon is cooking, lightly toast the grain-free bread slices in a toaster or on a dry skillet for 1-2 minutes per side, until golden brown.
Mash the avocado in a small bowl with a fork. Mix in the sea salt and black pepper to taste.
Spread the mashed avocado evenly over one side of each bread slice.
Layer the turkey bacon (2 slices per sandwich half), red onion slices, tomato slices, and lettuce leaves on one piece of the bread.
Add 1 teaspoon of Dijon mustard on the other bread slice, spreading evenly.
Place the mustard-topped bread slice over the layered sandwich ingredients to close the sandwich.
Cut the sandwich in half for easy serving, if desired, and enjoy your Paleo Turkey Bacon Sandwich!
