Steps:
- Mash the avocados in a medium bowl until chunky-smooth. Stir in the scallions, lemon juice, red pepper flakes, 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of black pepper; set aside.
- Cook the bacon in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat until crisp, about 4 minutes per side; transfer to a paper towel-lined plate. Remove and reserve all but 1 tablespoon of the drippings. Add the butter to the skillet, and swirl to melt and combine with the drippings. Dip both sides of each bread slice in the fat to coat, then cook until browned and crisp, about 2 minutes per side. Transfer the toasts to a cutting board. Raise the heat to medium-high. Add 1 tablespoon of the reserved drippings to the skillet, crack the eggs in a single layer, cover and fry until the whites are crisp at the edges but the yellows are runny, about 2 minutes.
- Meanwhile, spread each toast with 1/4 of the mashed avocado, and transfer to a serving plate with a spatula. Top each toast with 1/2 cup of the greens, 1 tomato slice sprinkled with salt and pepper, 2 slices bacon and a fried egg, and serve with a fork and knife.

Steps:
- Cook the bacon in a large skillet over medium heat until crisp, 8 to 10 minutes. Transfer to a paper-towel-lined plate. Season the cut sides of the tomatoes with salt.
- Heat a grill pan over high heat. Brush the cut sides of the baguette with the olive oil and grill, cut-side down, until toasted, about 2 minutes. Rub the grilled sides with the garlic. Rub just the bottom halves of bread with the tomatoes until most of the juice is absorbed, then top with the tomato skins and season with salt and pepper.
- Layer the avocado slices on top of the tomatoes, then add the bacon and frisee. Close with the bread tops.

Tips:
- Use ripe avocados that are slightly soft to the touch but not mushy.
- Toast the bread to add a crispy texture and nutty flavor.
- If you don't have bacon, you can use crispy fried tofu or tempeh as a substitute.
- Use high-quality mayonnaise for the best flavor.
- Add a sprinkle of freshly cracked black pepper for a finishing touch.
- For a healthier option, use whole-wheat bread and Greek yogurt instead of mayonnaise.
- If you're making this recipe for a crowd, you can prepare the avocado mixture and bacon ahead of time and assemble the sandwiches just before serving.
