Steps:
- Lightly toast bread or roll.
- Toss avocado slices with a tiny bit of lemon juice to keep from getting brown.
- Spread some of the honey mustard on the bread.
- Place lettuce on bread, followed by tomato slices, cucumbers, red onion, and avocado slices.
- Drizzle remaining honey mustard over the vegetables.
- Top with sprouts and close up sandwich, securing with a toothpick.
- Note: To make honey mustard, combine honey and prepared yellow mustard together to taste.
- To make honey mustard salad dressing, simply add a little mayonnaise to the same mixture and thin with a tiny bit of milk if needed, to suit your taste.
- Of course, both honey mustard and honey mustard salad dressings are now sold in stores if you prefer to use ready made.
Tips:
- Choose ripe avocados that are slightly soft to the touch. This will ensure a creamy and flavorful spread.
- Use fresh, crisp lettuce leaves for added texture and crunch. Butterhead lettuces, such as Boston or Bibb, work well.
- Select ripe, juicy tomatoes for a burst of flavor. Heirloom or Roma tomatoes are good options.
- Use a good quality bread that you enjoy. Sourdough, whole wheat, or multigrain breads all work well.
- Season the avocado spread with salt, pepper, and a squeeze of lemon juice to enhance its flavor.
- If you like spicy food, add a pinch of chili powder or cayenne pepper to the avocado spread.
- For a vegetarian version, omit the bacon and add an extra slice of avocado or tomato.
- Serve the sandwiches immediately or wrap them tightly and refrigerate them for a quick and easy lunch or snack later.
