Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 slices sourdough bread
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 4 slices cheddar cheese
- 1 medium avocado
- 1 medium tomato
- 0.25 teaspoons salt
- 0.25 teaspoons black pepper
Instructions
Begin by thinly slicing the tomato and avocado. Set them aside.
Spread a thin, even layer of butter on one side of each slice of sourdough bread.
Place the bread slices buttered-side-down on a clean cutting board or plate.
Lay one slice of cheddar cheese onto two of the bread slices (non-buttered side facing up).
Top the cheese layer with sliced avocado, followed by a layer of tomato slices.
Sprinkle a pinch of salt and black pepper over the tomatoes for extra flavor.
Place another slice of cheddar cheese on top of the tomatoes to ensure a melty center.
Close the sandwiches with the remaining bread slices, buttered-side facing outward.
Preheat a skillet over medium heat. Once heated, add the sandwiches to the pan.
Cook for 3-4 minutes on one side, pressing gently with a spatula for even cooking.
Flip the sandwiches carefully and cook for another 3-4 minutes, until the bread is golden brown and the cheese is fully melted.
Remove the sandwiches from the skillet, let them cool for a minute, then slice in half and serve warm.
