• 2 tablespoons Mayonnaise
• 1 teaspoon Lemon juice

📝 Instructions

9 steps

1. 1. Begin by preparing the avocado spread. Slice the avocado in half, remove the pit, and scoop the flesh into a bowl.

2. 2. Mash the avocado with a fork until smooth, then mix in mayonnaise, lemon juice, salt, and black pepper. Set aside.

3. 3. Thinly slice the tomato and red onion. Set aside along with the fresh spinach leaves.

4. 4. Spread a thin layer of the prepared avocado mixture on one side of all 8 slices of bread.

5. 5. Assemble each sandwich: on 4 slices of prepared bread, layer fresh spinach, a slice of Swiss cheese, 2 ounces of turkey, tomato slices, and a few rings of red onion, then top with another bread slice (spread side facing in).

6. 6. Heat a large skillet or griddle over medium heat. Melt 1 tablespoon of butter, swirling to coat the pan.

7. 7. Place two sandwiches in the skillet and cook for about 2-3 minutes per side, pressing lightly with a spatula, until the bread is golden brown and the cheese has melted.

8. 8. Repeat the process with the remaining sandwiches, adding the rest of the butter to the skillet as needed.

9. 9. Once all sandwiches are grilled, remove from the skillet and let cool for 1-2 minutes before slicing in half and serving.
