That avocado spread sounds like something I will use a lot. Don't know if I can switch my husband away to a healthier sandwich, however.....

Yay...though a blt is one of the few places i usually break my no mayo rule---the idea of subbing with avocado is just too yummy not to go for!

thanks for another great idea darbar!..x

This looks absolutely excellent! I am trying this on my kids this weekend - they don't know they like avocado - but they LOVE bacon.
