  2.  In small bowl standing in hot water, soften and whip Neufchatel
  cheese
      to spreading consistency.
  
  3.  Crumble bacon and stir into cheese with celery and onion.
  
  4.  Using rubber spatula, spread cheese thinly over softened cracker
      bread.  (You may think there isn't enough mixture to cover but
  just
      be patient and persevere.  You'll get there.)
  
  5.  Cover with turkey slices.
  
  6.  Dip avocado in lemon juice, then place on top of turkey.
  
  7.  Arrange Romaine leaves in a single layer over all. Sprinkle with
      pepper.
  
  8.  Roll bread up tightly to enclose filling.  Wrap in plastic and
  chill
      until ready to serve.  (CAn be made up to 12 hours ahead.)
  
  9.  Just before serving, remove plastic wrap and slice in diagonal
  slices.
  
  NOTE:  Large rounds of La Vosh-style cracker bread, if not readily
  available in your local market, can usually be found in specialty
  markets.
   Neufchatel cheese, in case you are wondering, looks and tastes just
  like cream cheese, but counts as a meat card instead of a fat card.
