Instructions:
…preparations for the guacamole:
Halve avocado with a knife, remove the seeds and then scrape out the fruit flesh with a spoon. Give the fruit flesh together with ½ clove of pressed garlic, the juice of ½ lime and a good pinch of salt and pepper in a bowl. Mash all ingredients with a fork and mix it up until a spreadable mass.
…other preparations:
Wash tomato, then cut into slices. Peel red onion and cut into thin rings. Line a plate with paper towels and put 5 slices bacon next to each other on the lined plate, then microwave the bacon until brown and crispy at 600 watts for 3 minutes.
…for the tortilla sandwich:
Grease 2 slices white bread or toast with 1 – 1½ tablespoon of guacamole. Place 5 slices of crispy bacon onto one bread half, then top with a few slices of tomatoes. Cover the tomatoes with 1 hand of tortilla chips, a few onions rings & 2 slices of processed cheese, then lid the sandwich with the second bread half.
Grill the sandwich for a few minutes in a panini grill or a grill pan (just put the sandwich in the grill pan loaded with a small pot or a pan, after a few minutes gently turn the sandwich once) until the cheese is melted and the sandwich becomes the typical grill patterns. Bon Appetite!
