Prepare the ingredients.
Wash the tomato and slice it into two medium-thick slices. Cut 1/4 of a medium avocado and scoop the flesh into a small bowl.
Tip: Use a ripe avocado that yields slightly to gentle pressure for creamy texture. -
Cook the turkey bacon.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Place the 3 slices of turkey bacon in the skillet and cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side until crispy and browned. Remove from heat and place on paper towels to drain excess fat.
Tip: Avoid overcrowding the pan to ensure even cooking and crispiness. -
Toast the bread.
While the bacon is cooking, toast the two slices of whole wheat bread in a toaster or toaster oven until golden and crisp, about 2-3 minutes.
Tip: Toast bread to your preferred level but avoid burning for best flavor. -
Mash the avocado.
Using a fork, mash the avocado in the bowl until smooth but still slightly chunky for texture.
Tip: Add a pinch of salt or a squeeze of lemon juice if desired to enhance flavor and prevent browning. -
Assemble the toast.
Spread the mashed avocado evenly over the toasted bread slices. Layer the tomato slices on top of the avocado, then place the crispy turkey bacon slices over the tomatoes.
Tip: Arrange ingredients neatly for an appealing presentation.
Pro tips
- Cook turkey bacon on medium heat to get crispy texture without burning.
- Use ripe but firm avocado to make mashing easier and avoid watery texture.
