Ingredients
1/2 cup mayonnaise
1 clove garlic, minced
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
8 slices rye bread
1 pound thick-sliced bacon, cooked
2 avocados, sliced
1 cup fresh arugula
1/4 cup chopped sundried tomatoes
Directions
In a small bowl, combine the minced garlic, black pepper, and mayonnaise. Mix until the garlic and pepper are evenly distributed throughout the mayonnaise.
Spread approximately 1 tablespoon of the garlic mayonnaise mixture on one side of each of the 8 bread slices.
Assemble the sandwiches by layering arugula, bacon, avocado slices, and chopped sundried tomatoes between the bread slices.
Cut each sandwich diagonally if desired and serve immediately.
Comments
Avocados and quality bacon will cost you four to five dollars per serving at Charlotte grocers like Harris Teeter or Publix, and ripe avocados demand day-of shopping—not an advance-meal problem. The five-minute claim holds only if bacon is pre-cooked; fresh bacon adds 15 minutes realistically. All ingredients are easy finds at any major chain, though sundried tomatoes may require a quick stop at the specialty aisle. This is a solid same-night sandwich for four that doesn't reheat, so plan it for lunch or a casual dinner when everyone eats together.
