At the end of each month, The Cook & Kitchen Staff select some of the best
recipes sent to Recipe-a-Day during the month, and post them to the entire
membership. Today's offering is from Recipe-a-Day member J. Dailey.

Recipe-a-Day member Dailey informed The Kitchen Staff that today's recipe
"makes an excellent lunch or can be cut into quarters and served as an
appetizer."

In a heavy skillet over medium heat, fry the bacon until crisp, and drain
on paper towels.

Meanwhile, warm the butter in a separate skillet over medium heat and sauté
the garlic until fragrant, about 2-3 minutes. Brush both sides of mushrooms
with the butter and grill for 6 to 8 minutes, until tender. Slice the
mushrooms into 1/4-inch-thick slices.

To assemble sandwiches, place 3 slices of bacon, one-fourth of the sliced
avocado, and one-fourth of the sliced mushrooms on each of four pieces of
toasted bread. Season with black pepper to taste, cover with another piece
of toast, and serve.

Kitchen Staff Tip: So you like the idea of this tasty little sandwich, but
you'd like to cut out some of the fat and calories? Try preparing today's
recipe with turkey bacon as a substitute for the original recipe. You'll
find the sandwich just as satisfying, and you'll have removed much of the
unnecessary fat.
