Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 whole Avocado
- 4 slices Bread
- 2 cloves Garlic
- 3 tablespoons Mayonnaise
- 1 tablespoon Extra-virgin olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Fresh lemon juice
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Butter
- 1 cup Spinach leaves
Instructions
Peel and mash the avocado in a small bowl. Add the lemon juice, 1/4 teaspoon of salt, and 1/8 teaspoon of black pepper. Mix until smooth and set aside.
Finely mince the garlic cloves. In another bowl, combine the garlic with mayonnaise to make the garlic spread.
Butter one side of each slice of bread lightly with the softened butter.
Spread a generous amount of garlic spread on the unbuttered side of two slices of bread.
On top of the garlic spread, add a layer of mashed avocado, then a handful of spinach leaves. Sprinkle lightly with the remaining salt and pepper.
Top with the other slices of bread, with the buttered side facing outwards.
Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Place the assembled sandwiches on the skillet and cook for 2-3 minutes per side, or until the bread is golden brown and crispy.
Remove from heat, slice the sandwiches in half, and serve immediately.
