B.L.A.S.T.

...that is the Bacon Lettuce Avocado Sprouts & Tomato sandwich. The idea for this one came about as we ate a BLT with alfalfa sprouts at the local eatery Silvergreens and I thought: "Just add avocado and it would be a blast...". Mrs. Erator suggested substituting prosciutto for the bacon, but that would then become a SPLAT sandwich. Maybe some other time.

Ingredients:
- bacon [1]
- 1 tomato
- leaves of romaine lettuce [2]
- clover sprouts
- 1 avocado
- ciabatta bread

Fry bacon, slice the tomato and the avocado, rinse the lettuce and toast the bread. Assemble the sandwich: Bread, bacon, tomato, lettuce, sprouts, avocado[3], and bread again. Enjoy immediately!

[1] No, I'm not going to tell you how much bacon to use - you know how much bacon you want in your bacon sandwich.
[2] Same as for bacon.
[3] The order is not really important, but it works nicely to put the avocodo and the sprouts next to each other because the avocado help keep the sprouts in place.
