Ingredients

The following ingredients have 4 Servings
  • 1 lb bacon
  • 1/2 c. maple syrup (I prefer using 100% pure)
  • 1/4 c. brown sugar
  • 2 c mozzarella cheese
  • 2 ripe avocados (1/2 avocado per sandwich)
  • 2 tomatoes
  • 1/2 c fresh pesto
  • 4 eggs (1 per sandwich)
  • 8 slices of bread (we used sourdough)

Instruction

  • At least an hour before you start preparing your meal, mix together the maple syrup and brown sugar in a small bowl. Cut the bacon slices into halves, make sure they are separated from each other, and place them all in a large plastic bag. Pour the syrup mixture over the bacon and seal. Place bag in the fridge to marinate.
  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees. After bacon has marinated for an hour, line a cookie sheet with aluminum foil and top that with a wire rack/cooling rack. Arrange 6 small slices of bacon into a weave (see picture below). Or you can just cook the pieces normally. Bake for about 20 minutes, or desired crispiness. Keep oven on.
  • While the bacon is cooking, slice the tomatoes and avocados. And cook the eggs over medium.
  • On another cookie sheet arrange the 8 slices of bread, 4 with sliced mozzarella cheese, 4 with a layer of pesto. Bake just until cheese begins to melt.
  • Arrange by a slice of cheese bread topped with the tomato, bacon, egg, avocado, and then topped with a pesto slice.
  • This recipe makes 4 sandwiches, you can adjust according to how many you actually need.
