Tomato-Avocado Grilled Cheese - cooking recipe
Ingredients
-
1 ripe avocado, halved, seeded, and peeled
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons fresh Italian parsley
8 slices whole grain bread
6 ounces sliced jack cheese
1 large tomatoes, thinly sliced
2 tablespoons mayonnaise
Preparation
-
In a small bowl, mash together avocado, lemon juice, cumin and salt until smooth. Stir in parsley. Set aside.
Lightly spread mayo on each of the bread slices. To build your sandwich, turn one slice of bread mayo side down in skillet; top with cheese; spread with avocado mixture and top with tomato slices the remaining bread slices.
Cover your skillet with a lid or foil and cook on medium-low for several minutes to allow the cheese to melt and fillings to warm. Remove lid and increase heat to medium-high. Continue cooking until your bread is done to your liking.
Note: You may substitute butter for the mayo, however, I find that the mayo makes the bread crispier and less greasy than butter. And it leaves no mayo taste behind.
