Ingredients
Main Ingredients
- 3 to 4 pieces tortilla chips, crushed For added crunch
- 4 strips bacon, cooked till crispy
- 2 tablespoons guacamole, softened at room temp Let come to room temperature for easier spreading
- 1/2 cup shredded Colby Jack cheese
- 2 slices sourdough bread
- 2 tablespoons salted butter, soft For buttering the bread
Instructions
Preparation
- Get your skillet hot over medium heat.
- Smear butter over one side of each bread slice.
Assembly
- Lay one bread slice down, buttered side hitting the hot surface. Sprinkle half the cheese on the plain side.
- Spread the guacamole next, pile on your bacon, and add crushed chips if desired. Then, finish with the rest of the cheese. Top it off with the second slice, buttered side facing up.
Cooking
- Move your stacked sandwich onto the hot skillet. Let the bottom cook until it’s toasty brown, which should take around 2 to 4 minutes.
- Flip the sandwich with a spatula. Let the other side toast till it is golden and the cheese is gooey, about another 2 to 4 minutes.
- Eat up right away!
Notes
Bacon Guacamole Grilled Cheese pairs beautifully with a fresh side salad or a bowl of tomato soup. For a touch of zest, consider a simple sauce made from sour cream and lime juice for dipping. Let the sandwich cool before storing in foil or an airtight container for up to three days. Reheat in a skillet for best results.
