Ingredients
  • 12 slices bacon, halved
  • Freshly ground black pepper
  • 4 beefsteak tomatoes
  • 2 pieces romaine, torn into smaller pieces
  • 1 avocado, sliced
  • 2 tbsp. mayo
Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 400°.
  2. Make a bacon weave: On a baking sheet, line 3 bacon halves side-by-side on the pan. Lift one end of the middle bacon slice and place a fourth bacon half on top of the side pieces and underneath the middle slice. Lay the middle slice back down. Next, lift the two side strips of bacon and place a 5th bacon half on top of the middle piece and underneath the sides. Lay the side slices back down. Finally, lift the other end of the middle slice and place a 6th slice on top of the side pieces and underneath the middle slice. Repeat the weaving process 4 times. Season bacon weaves with pepper.
  3. Place an oven-safe cooling rack on top of the bacon to prevent curling and bake until bacon is crispy, about 20 minutes. Transfer bacon weaves to a paper towel-lined plate.
  4. Slice tomatoes and reserve inside tomato slices for another use.
  5. To make the sandwiches, top the bottom slice of a tomato with romaine, then add a bacon weave and avocado. Slather top tomato slice with mayo and add to sandwich.
