Ingredients
- 120 grams Crab meat (lump or canned)
- 1 medium Avocado
- 4 slices Bacon strips
- 4 pieces Romaine lettuce leaves
- 4 slices Whole-grain sandwich bread
- 2 tablespoons Mayonnaise
- 1 teaspoon Lemon juice
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Ground black pepper
- 1 tablespoon Butter
Directions
Step 1
Cook the bacon in a skillet over medium heat until crispy, about 6-8 minutes. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess grease.
Step 2
Meanwhile, slice the avocado in half, remove the pit, and scoop the flesh into a small bowl. Add the lemon juice, salt, and pepper, then mash until smooth and creamy.
Step 3
In a separate bowl, gently mix the crab meat with 1 tablespoon of mayonnaise to create a light crab salad. Set aside.
Step 4
Toast the slices of whole-grain bread in a toaster or lightly butter them and grill in a skillet until golden brown.
Step 5
Spread the remaining mayonnaise onto one side of each slice of toasted bread.
Step 6
Layer the sandwich: Start with a lettuce leaf on the first slice of bread, add 2 bacon slices, spread half of the mashed avocado, and top with half of the crab salad. Repeat for the second sandwich.
Step 7
Close each sandwich with the second slice of bread, mayonnaise-side down.
Step 8
Secure the sandwich with a toothpick if needed, slice in half, and serve immediately. Enjoy!
