Ingredients

  • 4 slices or more of your favorite pork bacon
  • 2-4 slices of bread lightly toasted
  • 3 tablespoons mayonnaise or Miracle Whip
  • 3 tablespoons prepared horseradish sauce adjust to taste
  • ½ teaspoon fresh lemon juice
  • 2-3 leaves iceberg lettuce per sandwich
  • 1-2 slices tomato per sandwich
  • 2-3 slices raw onion rings
  • ¼-½ slices avocado sliced

Instructions

  • Prepare the bacon: Preheat oven to 400°F. Cut bacon strips in half (or to fit your bread). Weave the halves into a little “bacon block” on a baking tray. Bake until crispy, 15–20 minutes depending on thickness. Drain on paper towels.
  • Make the horseradish mayo: Mix mayonnaise and horseradish sauce. Add the lemon juice to subtly brighten the flavor. Taste and adjust if needed.
  • Assemble the sandwich: Lightly toast your bread. Spread the horseradish mayo on each slice. Layer lettuce, tomato, onion, avocado, and bacon. Add more mayo on top if desired.
  • Optional double-decker: Add another slice of bread in the middle with more toppings. Slice and serve immediately.

Notes

Make ahead tip: Bacon can be baked a day in advance and stored in the fridge; reheat before assembling.
