Avocado, Goat Cheese and Bacon Sandwich

This is amazing! Tangy goat cheese and creamy avocado are stirred together with a little hot sauce and salt & pepper, spread on nutty 9 grain bread and broiled for a few minutes, then it's topped with your favorites, I used bacon, tomato, and lettuce, now drizzle on a sweet balsamic dressing and you have one heck of a sandwich! I left the bacon off of mine and it was one of the best veggie sandwiches I've ever had! Be creative and add anything you like, sprouts, cucumbers, roasted red peppers, it's endless! The star of the show is the goat cheese and avocado mash and the tasty contrast of the sweet balsamic dressing. This will be a favorite! PS You can also serve these open face and stretch it further, but it is messy that way!
