Well slap my thigh and call me Sheila!!! this was OMG!!! At first I wasn't sure I was going to like it but the combination of the bacon with the avocado was just wonderful! I aded a little italian influence to the mix by using a Ciabatta roll but that just made it for me! I can't recommend this enough! I made this in conjunction with the Aussie part of the ZWT 5 for the Chow Hounds. What can I say but try it mate!

Very nice perfect tasting toast sensation. I followed this exactly, I had a beautiful avocado, hickory flavored bacon, and pumpernickel toasted in the toaster. I used some fresh butter, and confess to adding some thinly sliced onion to the top. Oh yummy, just perfect for a hard-working farm day. Thank you bluemoon!

July 2008 update: VERY happy to be back on Zaar after about a two year absence due to having had no internet connection at home, and having been too unwell for a time so that getting re-connected wasn't even a priority!
<br>
<br>And really looking forward to getting back into the Zaar world and connecting again with the many wonderful people I knew before, and new people, of course!
