Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pieces Bread slices
- 1 small Ripe tomato
- 0.5 unit Avocado
- 2 slices Cheese
- 1 tablespoon Butter
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon Olive oil
- 0.25 cup Baby spinach (optional)
Instructions
Slice the tomato into thin slices and set aside.
Scoop the flesh of the avocado into a small bowl. Mash it with a fork until creamy but slightly chunky. Add the olive oil, salt, and black pepper to the avocado mash and mix well.
Spread butter evenly on one side of each bread slice.
Heat a skillet or griddle over medium heat. Place one slice of bread butter-side down onto the skillet.
Spread the mashed avocado on the unbuttered side of the bread in the skillet.
Place the tomato slices on top of the avocado layer, followed by baby spinach (if using).
Layer the cheese slices on top of the tomato (and spinach, if used).
Cover with the second slice of bread, butter-side up.
Cook for about 2-3 minutes on each side, or until the bread is golden brown and the cheese has melted.
Remove the sandwich from the skillet, slice it in half if desired, and serve warm.
