A good club sandwich has always been one of my favorites. It’s hard to mess up a club sandwich. I’m pretty sure I survived my sophomore year of college thanks to the club sandwich. I lived in a dorm that was pretty far off the beaten path, and there was a little café downstairs that served a limited dinner menu. My favorite item? The club sandwich. And a side of french fries, of course. That might’ve been years ago now, but I can still remember the taste of that club sandwich. Is that strange? (It’s not because it was a notable sandwich, but rather it’s because I must’ve eaten a hundred of ’em!)
Avocado Club Flatbread
This Avocado Club Flatbread recipe was inspired by the classic club sandwich. However, I wanted to put a fun spin on it, and we happened to have extra pita bread in the freezer. A traditional California club sandwich features sliced avocados, tomatoes, bacon and turkey. I used the same ingredients here for this Avocado Club Flatbread, but I reimagined the concept a bit so that it would work for a flatbread.
Instead of sliced avocados, I mashed those avocados up with some cilantro and seasonings. I stopped short of making guacamole as I didn’t want the avocado mixture to overpower the rest of the flatbread. However, next time I make these flatbreads? I could see using guacamole as the base. You could actually say that this Avocado Club Flatbread is a cross between guacamole + avocado toast + California club sandwich. Whatever it is, I call it delicious!
I hope you enjoy this Avocado Club Flatbread recipe as much as we did – it’s a really fun way to reimagine a classic sandwich. Plus, you can’t ever go wrong with bacon! (In fact, you might want to double the amount of bacon in this recipe – you know, just in case some disappears on the way from the pan to the flatbreads.) Cheers!

Avocado Club Sandwich
Ingredients
For the Avocado
- 2 avocados peeled and seeded
- ¼ cup chopped cilantro
- 2 Tbsp lime juice ~1 lime
- ½ tsp red pepper flakes
- ½ tsp kosher salt
- ½ tsp black pepper
For the Flatbread
- 2 Tbsp olive oil
- 2 large flatbreads/naan
- 4 oz. sliced turkey
- 8 slices thick-cut bacon cooked
- ½ cup cherry tomatoes halved
Instructions
For the Avocado
- Using a small bowl, add the avocados, cilantro, lime juice, red pepper flakes, salt and pepper; mash with a fork until somewhat smooth.
For the Flatbread
- Preheat oven or grill to 375°F.
- Brush the flatbreads with olive oil. Bake flatbreads directly on oven rack for 6-8 minutes, or until edges are slightly crispy. (Note: If grilling the flatbreads, then will likely cook a bit faster. Keep a close eye on them to prevent them from burning.)
- Remove flatbreads from oven and spread avocado mixture evenly on top.
- Top flatbreads with sliced turkey, cooked bacon and cherry tomatoes. Serve warm or at room temperature.

cant wait to make this soon for me for the flatbread can i use mushrooms and tofu instead i never had avocado club flatbread before perfect for my after office meals love your recipes as always brightens up my day everyday after work
Yes! I think you could absolutely use tofu and mushrooms here, Ramya – just be sure to season them both well before adding them to the flatbreads. This is a fun recipe, and flatbreads offer a lot of flexibility in terms of toppings!
These look wonderful!
Thanks so much, Mimi!!
Give me some bread, vegetables, and fruits (Well and also cheese. And LOTS of ice cream, obviously), and I can 100% leave on it all summer long. That’s why this flatbread makes me happy. And of course, I don’t mind the addition of turkey and bacon 🙂
Haha – I’m pretty much in the same boat, Ben. Bread, cheese, fruit and ice cream. Ok, veggies are probably important, too. 🙂 And bacon. Lots of bacon.
Love a good flatbread and this one is loaded with so many delish flavours!
Thanks so much, Michelle – we had fun reimagining this sandwich in flatbread form! 🙂
I adore a good flatbread and you’re speaking my language with this one, David! My husband and I both love club sandwiches and this is such a fun way to enjoy one. I also love that this is more about the toppings than the bread, because some club sandwiches have too much bread, IMO.
Club sandwiches have always been a favorite of mine! If we go out to lunch and there’s a club sandwich on the menu, chances are I’ll be ordering it! This was a fun way to reimagine all of those flavors in a flatbread format. 🙂 Thanks, Marissa!
this sounds so very delicious david! even tho we are not eating any pig products – if we can help it. Tho come to think of it, i am making a scone recipe for the blog which has bacon… I adore club sangers!
I totally understand, Sherry – bacon is delicious, but I absolutely respect different strokes for different folks. 🙂 We had fun taking this classic sandwich and turning it into flatbread form!
This would be a really nice appetizer
Ah, yes – it would be a great appetizer for sure! Thanks, Raymund!
