Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 slices sourdough bread (or any bread of choice)
- 1 medium ripe avocado
- 1 medium tomato
- 1 cup fresh spinach leaves
- 1 teaspoon olive oil
- 1 teaspoon lemon juice
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 0.25 teaspoon optional red chili flakes (for heat)
Instructions
Preheat a skillet or pan over medium heat.
Brush both slices of bread lightly with olive oil on one side, then place them oil-side down in the hot skillet.
Toast the bread for about 1-2 minutes on each side until golden and crispy. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
Cut the ripe avocado in half, remove the pit, and scoop the flesh into a small bowl.
Mash the avocado with a fork and mix in the lemon juice, salt, black pepper, and optional red chili flakes for seasoning.
Slice the tomato into thin rounds and wash the spinach leaves thoroughly, patting them dry with a paper towel.
Spread the mashed avocado mixture evenly onto one side of each toasted bread slice.
Layer the tomato slices and fresh spinach leaves on top of the avocado on one slice of bread.
Place the second slice of bread on top to form a sandwich, avocado side down.
Slice the sandwich in half if desired and serve immediately while the bread is still warm and toasty.
