Ingredients:
Instructions:
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Arrange the bacon strips on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
- Bake the bacon in the preheated oven for about 15-20 minutes or until crispy. Once done, transfer the bacon strips to a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess fat. Set aside to cool.
- In a medium-sized bowl, combine the cream cheese, lemon juice, and chopped chives. Mix well until smooth and creamy. Set aside.
- Cut the avocado in half, remove the pit, and scoop out the flesh into a small bowl. Gently mash the avocado with a fork until smooth. Set aside.
- Slice the baguette in half lengthwise and then cut each half into smaller sandwich-sized pieces.
- Spread a generous amount of the cream cheese mixture onto the bottom half of each baguette piece.
- Spoon and spread the mashed avocado evenly on top of the cream cheese layer.
- Layer on the mixed greens or salad mix evenly over the avocado.
- Distribute the chopped sun-dried tomatoes evenly over the greens.
- Break the cooled bacon strips into smaller pieces and sprinkle them over the sun-dried tomatoes.
- Place the top half of each baguette pieces over the layered ingredients, gently pressing down to secure the contents.
- Carefully slice the assembled baguettes into individual sandwiches if not done already.
- Serve immediately and enjoy your delicious Avocado BLT Baguettes!
Tips:
- For an extra crunchy texture, lightly toast the baguette slices before assembling the sandwiches.
- Use ripe avocados for the best creamy texture.
- If cream cheese is too thick, you can mix it with a small amount of milk to make it more spreadable.
- Feel free to add a pinch of salt and pepper to the cream cheese mixture for added flavor.
- Bacon can be cooked to your preferred crispiness. For a healthier option, use turkey bacon.
- Try adding fresh herbs like basil or parsley for an extra burst of freshness.
In just a few steps and with a handful of fresh ingredients, you can create delicious Avocado BLT Baguettes. The creamy avocado and tangy lemon juice complement the savory bacon and sun-dried tomatoes perfectly, making for a balanced and flavorful dish. Enjoy your meal!
